Baked Aubergine and Pomegranate Salad

Blogging opens new doors, trust me on this. A friend of mine, whom I met by blogging but never have seen in person, shared with me her recipe of this salad. And I tell you — this is the best baked aubergine salad I tried. And I have been to Middle East many times...

Do you have these ingredients?
1 aubergine
handful walnuts
handful basil leaves
handful pomegranate seeds
1 garlic clove
1 tbsp oliven oil
salt, pepper

Step for step
Heat the oven to 200C and bake the aubergine for 1 hour.
Remove from the oven, peel and chop.
Chop the basil leaves and the walnuts. Mix with the aubergine mix.
Peel and crush the garlic clove. Mix with the aubergine mix.
Add the oliven oil and the pomegranate seeds to the aubergine mix and mix well.
Season.
