Ingredients for 4 people :

4 large eggplants
4 tomatoes
400 g fresh goat's cheese

To make this recipe

Wash and slice eggplants lengthwise.
Drizzle them with the olive oil and place them on the grill, flesh side down, until nicely marked (about 10 minutes).
Arrange them on a baking sheet, flesh side up, with the chopped garlic. Sprinkle with Sunny veggie barbecue spices.
Place the chunks of fresh goat's cheese and diced tomatoes on top of the eggplants.
Place the garnished eggplants back on the barbecue and cook for a further 10 minutes.
You can serve the grilled eggplants with a few arugula leaves on top.

Another gourmet option with your barbecue rubs

You can also grill slices of zucchini and eggplant (approx. 1 cm thick). Once you've obtained the typical grill markings, sprinkle them with Sunny veggie barbecue spices. Place them in a dish containing oil and a clove of crushed garlic.

Your antipasti is ready - enjoy! It can be prepared and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. And for a cocktail party, serve on slices of farmhouse or seed bread.
