  • Heat a generous drizzle of olive oil in the same frying pan. Add the eggplant and fry for 3 - 4 minutes over medium heat, covered. 
  • Slice the onion into half rings, then add it to the eggplant and fry for the remaining time.
  • Add the BBQ spice* rub and Middle Eastern-style spices, Sicilian-style herbs and capers to the eggplant and onion, then fry for 1 more minute while stirring continuously.
