Another cheeky one - baby chilli aubergines

After work drinks are never going to be the same again... great, believe it or not, with dry martinis or an ice cold limoncello.

This is what baby aubergines (the ones which are only a couple of inches long or less) were grown for!

A great addition to the Cheeky Wednesday experience, although it may take just a spot more than 30 minutes to prepare and cook.

Take twenty to thirty of the little beauties and coat with garlic oil and two finely chopped chillies.  Leave whole and with the stalks on as you will need something to hold them with.  Place on a baking tray in a pre-heated 180c oven for 20 minutes.

Allow to cool slightly and sprinkle with rock salt.

Alternatively, used the long slender "finger" aubergines, bake them as above and portion in one inch lengths, really GOOD!
