Eggplant is a delicate fruit that loves the heat. But unlike certain hardier plants, such as kale, it’s very sensitive to cold, so it has to be harvested before the first frost. We decided to grill it on the barbecue and then marinate it so that we didn’t lose any of its flavour.

You can also use one medium-size eggplant, cut into slices ½-inch (1 cm) thick.

The garlic clove can be chopped and added to a salad dressing or flavoured mayonnaise.
