2 tbsp aubergine pickle
1⁄2 lime, juice
handful coriander leaves, finely chopped, plus extra to serve
11⁄2 echalion shallots, finely chopped
2 tbsp essential Waitrose sun ower oil
1-2 green chillies, deseeded and finely chopped

Cut into wedges and serve straightaway, sprinkled with coriander and with the aubergine relish and some warm atbreads, if liked.
