    I am not a fan of aubergines, and so am confused as to why I opened this thread. In some sort of brain fade moment, I thought it said courgette.... Well, I read aubergine, but it was translated to courgette. Don't ask me how.

    I have a recipe for a lasagne with aubergine. And some other vege, pumpkin I think. I saw it yesterday as I was looking for recipes for Christmas.

    I will try to look for it and post it later.

    I make a risotte aubergine bake sometimes but it's quite labour intensive so not often.

    Anyways....
    grill/bbq/fry (grill is best) aubergine cut into about 1cm slices
    make a risotto and take it off just before it's fully cooked
    then layer them up with a bit of cheese the sprinkle a bit of cheese on top and bake.

    Just thought of another that we did as students with aubergine.

    It's basically those mexican burrito thingies that you stuff yourself, you can fry an aubergine to have with them along with the usual mince, chicken strips, tomato, lettuce, cheese etc. Really good for when there's loads of you and you want an informal meal, maybe as a side for a BBQ.

    Here's my 2 cents Traditionally we slice them, sprinkle with salt and dip them in batter and fry them up as a side.
