Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Aubergines

    Preheat your grill or smoker to medium-high heat. Cut the aubergines in half lengthwise and score the flesh in a diamond pattern without cutting through the skin.

  2. 2

    Season the Aubergines

    In a bowl, mix the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes. Brush this mixture generously over the scored flesh of the aubergines.

  3. 3

    Grill the Aubergines

    Place the aubergine halves on the grill with the flesh side down. Grill for about 10-12 minutes until the flesh is tender and charred.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Chili Crunch

    While the aubergines are grilling, mix together the fresh chives and extra chili flakes in a small bowl to create a chili crunch topping.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the aubergines are cooked, remove them from the grill. Top with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with the chili crunch before serving.
