Preparation

Cut the aubergine in half crossways, then into half-moons. Salt and leave to drain for 15 minutes. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Fry the aubergine in the hot olive oil for 3 minutes. Sprinkle with a little sugar, turn over and fry for another 3 minutes. Remove and leave to cool.

Put the crushed garlic, cream cheese, yogurt and dill in a bowl. Beat thoroughly, then mix with the aubergine. Ideally, leave for a few hours before serving.
