Ingredients:
  • 8 slices Italian-style bread (ciabatta)
  • 300g ricotta
  • 2 small eggplants, halved
  • 75g baby spinach leaves
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
  • extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
  • tomato chutney, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven grill to high. Place the eggplant on a tray and generously coat with oil spray. Grill for 10-12 minutes until tender. Cover to keep warm after removing from the oven.
  • Toast bread slices until they are golden. While the bread is toasting, combine ricotta with cracked pepper.
