Cuisine: Thai
Type: Vegetables
Courses: Starters and appetizers
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 cup  Eggplant (medium)
6   King prawns - shelled
2 teaspoons  Sesame oil
10 teaspoons  Shallots - finely sliced (small)
2 teaspoons  Spring onions - finely chopped (medium)
1   Lemon - juiced
2 teaspoons  Fish sauce
1 teaspoon  Sugar
5 teaspoons  Fresh red or green chiles - finely chopped (small)
  Fresh coriander

Recipe Instructions

Take the whole eggplant and place under a hot grill for 15 minutes, turning from time to time. Cut away the stalk and peel away the skin with the edge of a knife. Slice the eggplant lengthways into quarters then crossways twice, to make 12 pieces.

Stir fry the prawns in the oil and chop into 6 or so pieces each.

Place in a bowl and pour in all the remaining ingredients. Stir just enough to coat the aubergine, but taking care not to mash the flesh too much. Turn on to a plate and garnish with coriander leaves.
