Preparation steps

1.

Rinse eggplants, trim and cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch thin slices. Season with a little salt and let stand 20 minutes to draw out water. Meanwhile, rinse the mint, shake dry and pluck off the leaves. Halve the pomegranate and gently scrape out seeds with a teaspoon.

2.

Mix the vinegar with the olive oil and season with salt, pepper and a little honey. Pat the eggplant slices dry and fry on both sides in a grill pan with vegetable oil for 3-4 minutes. Remove from pan, allow to cool briefly and arrange in a bowl. Sprinkle with pomegranate seeds and mint leaves. Serve drizzled with the vinaigrette.
