Fish
- 6 thick fillets, medium textured fish
- 1-2 Tblsp Moroccan Rub
- 4-5 Tblsp olive oil

- 2 diced tomatoes
- Greek style yoghurt
Method
- Sprinkle the fish with the Moroccan rub and half the olive oil. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Cut the aubergines in half with a sharp knife, make shallow criss cross cuts into the flesh. Rub well with the remaining olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Panfry or barbecue over a moderate heat until the flesh in tender. Stir the chermoula, sundried tomato or pepper paste and parsley together and spread over the cut side of the aubergine halves and just warm through either in an oven or in a hot pan or barbeque.

Cooks Tips
- If you do not have time to make Chermoula, use a spicy sundried tomato or red pepper paste in its place. - Small aubergines are available at good green grocers. If you do not have, use large ones, cut into thick slices.
