Serves 2

Ingredients

For the kebabs

1 large aubergine cut into 3cm chunks

6 whole cherry tomatoes

2 tbsp harissa paste

1 tbsp maple syrup

2 large flatbreads (Waitrose ones were lush!)

1 small pomegranate, seeds only

generous drizzle tahini paste

For the relish

1 small onion, diced

1/4 of a cucumber, diced

handful of mint leaves, roughly chopped

1 tbsp cider vinegar

Method

(Note: I have found that with my small griddle pan, it is a bit of a nightmare getting the aubergine to cook evenly on skewers. I have left the skewers out of this and it works better for me. Try it both ways if you like)

Heat a griddle pan over a medium-high heat. Thread the aubergine chunks and cherry tomatoes onto two metal or pre-soaked wooden skewers.

Whisk the harissa paste and maple syrup into a large bowl, then dip the skewers into the mixture, generously coating the aubergine and tomatoes. Place the skewers onto the griddle pan for 5–6 minutes, then turn on the other side and cook for a further 5 minutes.

In the meantime, prepare the relish. Put the cucumber and red onion in a small bowl and stir through the mint. Sprinkle over the vinegar and allow to infuse while the kebabs are cooking.

Arrange the grilled flatbreads on a platter and liberally sprinkle over the pomegranate seeds. Carefully remove the kebabs from the griddle pan and slide off the vegetables onto the flatbreads. Spoon over the relish and tahini and serve immediately.

Note: These also taste great reheated the next day. Just keep the aubergine, pomegranate seeds and relish separate.
