1
Take your aubergine wedges and salt well all over. Set aside for 1/2 hour. Set up a steamer and bring it to a simmer on the stove.
2
Meanwhile, make the marinade with the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Taste and adjust your seasonings - this should be a moderately hot, salty and very earthy dish.
3
Rinse the salt from the aubergine wedges and layer them into your steamer. Steam for 15 minutes to achieve a very soft and giving texture.
4
Remove the aubergine to a bowl and while still hot, pour over the marinade. Cover and let sit in the fridge for 8 hours to a day or more if you wish.
5
The next day, bring to room temperature and sprinkle over the cilantro when you are ready to eat it. *If the roasted sesame oil is too strong for your palate, blend it to taste with another oil.
