Cook: 40 minutes

Serves: 4-6

This could not be easier. If you make it the day before and refrigerate overnight the flavour will be even better. Leftover dressing can be used on other salads or sandwiches.

Heat oven to 180°C (fan). Cut the aubergines into 2cm chunks.

Put the aubergine in a large bowl with the olive oil, sumac, pomegranate molasses and seasoning and mix so they are well coated.

Tip into a large roasting tin (I use the oven shelf itself) so the aubergines are in one layer – scraping out the bowl to get all the coating ingredients out.
