Instructions
Slice the aubergine in half lengthways and cut a few criss cross lines with a knife trying not to pierce the skin (but don’t panic if you do).
1 aubergine
Place the sliced aubergine in a metal dish. I use an enamel pie dish from Aldi but you can use the long-handled trivet and cake pan from the Instant Pot silicone steamer set.
Mix the 1 teaspoon groundnut oil, 1 tablespoon honey and 1 tablespoon soy sauce and pour over (or use a brush) the aubergine, making sure it goes into the slits you have cut as much as possible.
Place the trivet in the inner pot on the lower setting with the dish with the aubergines on top.
Place the Air Fryer Lid on the pot. Set the temperature to 180ºC / 355ºF and the time to 25 minutes. Press Start.
Brush any of the glaze that may have collected on the dish over the aubergine, don’t waste it, it’s lovely
Notes
Different size aubergines will take different times. Keep an eye on it, it’s as simple as lifting the lid to check. The cooker will pause and continue when you put the Air Frying lid back on
