Method
- 1
Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a wide pan and cook the aubergines for 10 minutes, stirring often, until softened and starting to colour.
- 2
Add the garlic, ground cumin and paprika and cook for 1 minute, then stir in the tomatoes and simmer for 12-15 minutes, mashing occasionally, until thick and jammy.
- 3
Meanwhile, rub the lamb chops with the remaining olive oil and season well. Heat a griddle pan to high and cook the chops for 4-5 minutes each side, until well browned outside and cooked to your liking inside, with the juices running clear.
- 4
Stir half the coriander through the zaalouk and warm the flatbreads.
- 5
Serve the lamb chops with the zaalouk and warm flatbread, scattered with the remaining coriander.
