Roasted aubergine at Ottolenghi
Roasted aubergine with turmeric yoghurt and pomegranate seeds at Ottolenghi
£2.80 per 100g take-away, £9 dinner, Ottolenghi, 287 Upper Street, N1 2TZAnyone who has ever eaten at this smart café-deli will recognise its trademark style: dishes that deliver sunshine on a plate, full of colour, texture, and bright, bursting flavours. Here, roasted aubergine, fresh basil and pomegranate seeds are dressed with a North African-inspired turmeric yoghurt. Exact ingredients change throughout the year, with this particular version only available during the winter months. Other seasonal varieties include saffron yoghurt, or even a chilli-spiked one – but whatever the time of year, it’s a dish that never fails to impress.
