what to do with 2 aubergines!

Well   its  Sunday,   the  children  have been  outside splashing in the pool  and its been way  too  hot  for  a   tradtional Sunday dinner,...so  I   had a look in the fridge  to see  what   I could  conjur up for lunch.
I  found  2  aubergines, still   in their  bag.....they were a bargain  at  only 50cents for two !


I  decided to  make  a  ''Catalan aubergine dish''.

All you need for this   are  2  medium sized aubergines,

                                           5  tablespoons  of olive oil,

                                           2 medium tomatoes,



                                           1 teaspoon of paprika

                                           2 cloves of garlic,crushed

                                            1 medium onion , chopped

                                            chopped fresh parsley





Heres what you need   to make this dish

First you   peel and cube the aubergines.
Then  heat the oil in a  pan ,
add the cubes and saute  for  about  5 minutes.



Into the pan then add  the chopped onion, crushed garlic and teaspoon of paprika and fry for  5 minutes.




Cover the pan and  leave to cook for a further 15 minutes.

Then place in a serving dish and garnish with  grated cheese  and  fresh  parsley.




serve with a sprinkling of  cheese  and herbs, and  fresh crusty bread.

                                            

This is delicious with  fresh crusty bread and  a  salad !!

Needless to say  this was    enjoyed by all....not too much washing up  and   not much time spent    cooking !

We  might have a  barbecue  later...I'll let you know   how we get on !
