Posted On: 2023-01-17 10:27:10

Ingredients

2 eggplants, thickly sliced

2 tbsp olive oil

1 cup slow-roasted tomatoes (see here for recipe)

125g feta cheese, crumbled

¼ cup pesto

2 tbsp pine nuts, toasted

Directions

Heat oil in frypan on medium to high heat. Add slices of eggplant in a single layer. Fry on one side for 3-4 minutes before turning and frying the other side for 3-4 minutes. Remove from pan when cooked and place on a paper towel. Continue to cook in batches. Set aside to cool.

To assemble salad, layer the eggplant, smear with some of the pesto then top with slow-roasted tomatoes (add some of the juices from the roasted process if you like). Top with the crumbled feta.

Whisk the remaining pesto with a little olive oil and drizzle over the top of the salad. Scatter with pine nuts. Season to taste.
