- Preheat your oven to 200/180°C fan.
- In a large roasting tray, toss the aubergine and onion with some olive oil, salt, and pepper, then place in the oven to roast for 20 minutes.
- Once the aubergine and onions have started to caramelize, remove the tray from the oven and add in the tomatoes, black beans, and season with paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Place the roasting tray back into the oven for another 20 minutes.
- While this is in the oven, start making the tahini drizzle by mixing tahini, lemon juice, garlic, a pinch of salt, and water. Mix this until you have reached a drizzle consistency.
- Finally, remove the tray from the oven, top with the tahini drizzle and herbs, then you are ready to serve and enjoy with a delicious slice of toasted sourdough.
