Cheesy Aubergine Bake Recipe

I’ve been dying to try this cheesy aubergine bake for a while now. It is so simple but super delicious 🌟 and uses minimal ingredients, which is a bonus in my eyes 👀

We end up eating so much meat in the week, that I’m trying to find some delicious veggie dinner alternatives that are still bursting in flavour!

Recipe:

🍆 1 aubergine
🍆 1 onion
🍆 400g chopped tomatoes
🍆 150g cheddar and mozzarella cheese
🍆 Salt, pepper, chilli flakes, garlic to taste
🍆 1 tbsp tomato puree

Method:

1) Slice the aubergine lengthways. Drizzle with oil and generously season with salt and pepper.

2) Griddle the aubergine for 2 mins on each side and transfer to a baking tray and continue to bake for 10 mins at 200c.

3) Dice the onion and soften. Add the chopped tomatoes, puree, salt, pepper, garlic and chilli flakes to taste. Reduce down for 10 mins.

4) Layer up the bake – place the softened aubergine at the bottom, top with 1/3 of the tomato sauce and sprinkle over cheese. Repeat two more times, finally ending with cheese.

5) Bake for 15 mins at 200c until golden.
