How to make Roasted Aubergine Salad with Pita Chips and Yoghurt Sauce

Heat oven to 232°C. Line a baking sheet with foil. Poke holes in aubergines with a fork. Roast until they collapse, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool slightly. Cut open, scoop out flesh into a bowl and discard skins. Mix flesh with 60ml of the lemon juice. Let sit 10 minutes. Place flesh in a fine-mesh strainer; press gently with a large spoon, squeezing out moisture. Chop aubergine. Mix in peppers, tomatoes, garlic, parsley, chives, basil, oil and remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Add salt and pepper. Set aside.

Mix ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.

Reduce heat to 177°C. Coat 1 side of each pita wedge with cooking spray. Sprinkle each sprayed side with Parmesan, seeds and black pepper. Bake on foil until crisp, 6 to 7 minutes. Serve aubergine with pita chips and yoghurt sauce on the side.
