Method
step 1
Heat half the oil in a non-stick, deep frying pan over a medium heat and, once shimmering, cook the red onion with a pinch of salt for 5 mins until beginning to soften.
step 2
Stir in 2 tsp of the harissa and the garlic, and cook for 4-5 mins more until fragrant. Stir in the rice.
step 3
Pour in the hot stock, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover with a lid and cook for 15 mins, then turn the heat off and let stand, covered, for 15 mins.
step 4
Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 8. Arrange the aubergine on a roasting tin lined with baking parchment and rub in the rest of the olive oil and harissa. Season and roast for 25-30 mins.
step 5
Meanwhile, combine the yogurt, turmeric, half the lemon zest and juice and plenty of salt and pepper. In a separate bowl, mix the parsley and jalapeño with the remaining lemon juice and zest. Season with salt and pepper.
step 6
Serve each portion of rice topped with the roasted aubergine and a spoonful each of the turmeric yogurt and spicy parsley salad.
