Ingredients

2 large aubergines

4 tbsp olive oil

1 onion, chopped

1 garlic clove, crushed

2 tsp Asda Mild Chilli Powder

4 tomatoes, de-seeded and chopped

400g can Asda Butter Beans, drained and rinsed

200g can sweetcorn drained

75g Lancashire Cheese

Crusty bread, to serve

Method

1
Pre-heat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Cut the aubergines in half lengthways. Scoop out the flesh with a sharp knife, leaving a 1cm shell, then chop. Put the shells on a baking tray and brush lightly with some oil. Cook in the oven for 15 minutes.
2
Heat the rest of the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion over a medium heat, stirring often, until translucent.
3
Add the aubergine flesh and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring often.
4
Add the chilli powder, tomatoes and butter beans, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are soft.
5
Mash the mixture lightly with a fork until the beans are partially broken. Add the sweetcorn and heat through.
6
Put into the aubergine shells. Crumble on the cheese and bake for 15 minutes. Serve with crusty bread.
