Baked brinjal with ham and gruyere

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cooking Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

4 x 150 g brinjals
4 slices ham
100–125 g Gruyère cheese, thinly sliced
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
olive oil
¼ cup fresh cream or vegetable stock
400 g sachet creamy tomato sauce
Italian parsley, chopped, for sprinkling
potato gnocchi, cooked, or a green salad, for serving

Method

Preheat the oven to 180ºC. Peel the brinjals, keeping them in a large bowl of lemony water until ready to use. Slice in half lengthways, sandwich with the ham and cheese, then season lightly. Place in an oiled baking dish. Add the cream or stock to the creamy tomato sauce and pour over the brinjal sandwiches. Bake for 30 minutes or until the brinjal is tender. Sprinkle with parsley and serve hot with gnocchi or at room temperature with a salad.
