Aubergine shashlik burritos with mango yoghurt
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 brown onion
- 1 aubergine
- 1 gem lettuce
- 20g mango chutney
- 1/2 tbsp curry powder
- 80g natural yoghurt
- 5.5g vegetable stock mix
- 30g sultanas
- 1 tomato
- 1 tsp nigella seeds
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
- 100g basmati rice
- 4 plain tortillas
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C / 180°C (fan) / gas 6
- Trim the green stalks off the aubergine and cut lengthways into 8 wedges.
- Peel and cut the brown onion into quarters.
- Transfer the aubergine wedges and onion quarters to a roasting tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a generous pinch of salt and put the tray in the oven for an initial 20 min.
- Add the basmati rice, sultanas, vegetable stock mix, ground turmeric and 250ml cold water to a pot with a lid and bring to the boil over a high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 10-12 min or until all the water has absorbed.
- Once cooked, remove from the heat and keep covered until serving - this is your pilau rice.
- Meanwhile, add the mango chutney, nigella seeds and natural yoghurt to a small bowl and give it a good mix up - this is your mango yoghurt.
- Once the aubergine has had an initial 20 min, add the curry powder, smoked paprika and a splash of cold water to the roasting tray and give everything a good mix up.
- Cook for 4-5 min further or until the aubergine is cooked through - this is your curried aubergine and onions.
- While the aubergine is cooking, add the tortillas to a separate tray and put the tray in the oven for 2-3 min until warmed through.
- Wash the gem lettuce, then pat it dry with kitchen paper and shred.
- Slice the tomato into 6 wedges.
- Top half of each warmed tortilla with the pilau rice, curried aubergine and onions, shredded lettuce and tomato wedges.
- Dollop the mango yoghurt over the top.
- To make the perfect burrito, fold the sides of each tortilla in and wrap the bottom of the tortilla over the filling, tucking it in lightly.
- Roll the tortilla until you're left with a burrito - these are your aubergine shashlik burritos.
- Wrap the burritos in tin foil to hold everything together, the slice in half.
