Preheat the oven to 190 °C. Line a large baking sheet with baking paper. Grease with nonstick spray.

1 Brinjal dip Prick the brinjals and microwave for 7-8 minutes. Transfer to a roasting pan. Microwave the garlic for 3-5 minutes and add to the roasting pan. Drizzle the oil over and roast for 20 minutes. Cool the brinjals slightly, then remove the skin.

2 Squeeze the garlic cloves to remove the purée, add to the brinjal flesh and mash. Mix in the remaining ingredient­s.

4 Transfer to the baking sheet, drizzle the extra oil over and bake for 10-15 minutes.
