    Heat a griddle pan to full heat and lay the aubergine slices onto the pan. First griddle one side until charred. Then brush with more olive oil and season and turn to char the other side and until they. Add the onion strips to the pan and slightly char until aubergine is tender . The onion does not need to be softened to much .

    I pureed the rest of gazpacho I made yesterday completely and made a sauce to rest the aubergines in. It worked very well together. Don't like wasting food.
