Peel the aubergines (eggplants) and cut into small pieces. Place in a saucepan with two tablespoons (30ml) of water. Cover the pan and cook over a medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until soft.

Drain the aubergine and place in a blender or food processor with the NESTLE Natural yogurt, chopped garlic and mustard. Blend to obtain a smooth purée. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
