large aubergine
3 ripe tomatoes
8 - 10 slices of Serrano Ham
150g grated cheese
Generous bunch of fresh oregano, finely chopped
Olive oil

How
to make Aubergines with Serrano Ham
- Prepare
the tomato sauce by roughly chopping the tomatoes,
place in a pan with a pinch of salt and cook on a
medium heat for about half an hour until the tomatoes
reduce. For a smooth sauce, you can blend the tomatoes
with a hand blender before cooking.
- Wash
the aubergine and then cut lengthways into thick slices.
- Place
the aubergine slices onto a serving dish, sprinkle
with salt and then leave for half an hour.
- When
the tomato sauce is cooked, turn off the heat. Pat
the aubergine slices dry and fry on both sides in
a little olive oil until tender.
- Place
tinfoil onto a baking tray and oil lightly. Lay the
aubergines onto the tray and spread the tomato sauce
onto each slice.
- Put
a slice or two of Serrano ham on top of the aubergines,
sprinkle with cheese and then with the oregano.
- Cook
under a hot grill until the cheese melts.
