Ingredients

Preparation method

  1. Heat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas6. Roast the aubergine on a baking sheet until tender - about 20-30 minutes. Cool.

  2. Peel and squeeze out any juices. Put in a food processor and whiz together with the fresh coriander, garlic, lemon juice and a little seasoning.

  3. Cook the potatoes until tender and mash until smooth. Allow to cool.

  4. Beat in the egg yolks, parsley, chives and flour and season with salt and pepper.

  5. Whisk the egg whites until they reach the soft peak stage. Fold into the potato mixture.

  6. Heat some oil in a frying pan and cook tablespoons of the mixture until golden on each side.

  7. Keep warm until ready to serve and then top with the aubergine purée.
