1. Heat a griddle pan or grill. Brush each aubergine slice with olive oil. Cook in batches for 2-3 mins, turning once, until softened and lightly charred. Arrange on a serving platter and season with pepper.
2. To make the dressing; whisk the remaining ingredients until well combined and season to taste. Drizzle over the grilled aubergines, then serve at once.

  I used the amount of yogurt specified in the recipe but used a lot less tahini paste (I used about half a teaspoon) and used about 1/4 of a clove of garlic as I'm not a huge fan of raw garlic! I also missed out the fresh coriander. It was really nice though and will make it again

  Lovely but the tahini does overpower a bit so would halve the quantity. Great with the moroccan spiced tuna as suggested :o) Good for weekday meal.
