4. Sprinkle with rock salt and allow them to sit for 15 mins.
5. In a griddle pan pour a good glug of sesame seed oil and place the aubergines in the pan with the lid on (my griddle pan doesn’t have a lid so I used the best fitting one I had) and let it cook on a medium heat for about 5 mins then turn them over and do the same. If you think they are burning then turn down the heat or turn them over earlier than 5 mins.
6. Then place them in a baking tray and with the inside up
