Sticky Miso Aubergine

Aubergine roasted until custardy, then brushed with a glossy miso glaze and grilled until it caramelises. It works as a side, a starter or a main with rice.

Ingredients

  • 2 large aubergines, halved lengthways
  • 2 tbsp oil

Glaze

  • 3 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger

To serve

  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 spring onions, sliced

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 200 C. Score the cut side of each aubergine half in a diamond pattern and brush with oil.
  2. Roast cut-side down for 25 to 30 minutes until very soft.
  3. Whisk the glaze ingredients together in a small bowl.
  4. Turn the aubergine over, spread the glaze on the cut sides and grill or roast for 5 to 8 minutes until bubbling and caramelised.
  5. Scatter with sesame seeds and spring onions.
