Smoky flavoured aubergines with a hit of coriander is the making of this unique dip. It goes well with vegetables, bread, crackers or even dolloped over fish and chicken.

Using tongs to turn them as they blacken on all sides.

When cool enough to handle, peel off the blackened skin and put the flesh in a colander to drain for 30 minutes.

Transfer the aubergine to a food processor then pulse for both a smooth and textured mix.
