Method

1. Heat the oven to 200°C / 400°F / Gas Mark 6.
2. Slice off the stalk end from each aubergine and then slice each one in half lengthways.
3. Add the minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and oregano to the tray and give it all a good stir, spreading it evenly across the surface.
4. Arrange the aubergine halves on the tray, flesh-side down, ensuring all have a good coating of the oil mixture.
5. Cook for 25 minutes. When you remove them after this time the skins should be slightly wrinkly.
6. Turn each half over, cover the tray with tin foil and return to cook for a further 20-25 minutes.
7. The aubergines are just right when they’re starting to dissolve slightly, but still hold their shape.
