Ingredients

2 corn cobs
2 eggplant
125 gr greek yoghurt

Fot the honey marinade:

3 tbl spoon liquid honey
3 tbl spoon olive oil
1 tea spoon sweet paprika powder
`2 tea spoon rosemary
salt and pepper
coarse salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200º.
rinse the aubergines and corn cobs under running water.
Cut the aubergines and corn cobs lengthwise into quarters. Mind you, you need extra power with the corn on the cob. but just by cutting them lengthwise they will curl during baking.

Make the honey marinade:

Mix the olive oil with the honey, sweet paprika, rosemary and a little salt and pepper. Use a brush to cover both the aubergines and the corn cobs.
Place baking paper on the baking tray and place the aubergine and corn pieces on top. If you have any marinade left, you can rub them again. Bake for 25 minutes at 200º.
Serve on a platter. First spread the greek yogurt, put the corn and eggplant on top and sprinkle some coarse salt on top. I served this with grilled haloumi. If you have parsley, an extra green touch is always nice… Let it taste!

Notes

Corn and eggplant baked with honey is a delicious dish that combines the sweetness of honey with the savory flavors of corn and eggplant. It’s a great way to prepare these two ingredients in a flavorful and unique way.

Corn is naturally sweet, so I give the honey marinade an extra touch of sweet paprika and rosemary. Slicing the corn cobs lengthwise will cause them to curl while baking. Nice to present at a party or at a BBQ. Note: I had to rely on my husband’s brutal male strength to cut the corn cobs lengthwise 😉

It is a delicious side dish option for summer meals and can also go well with grilled dishes. Definitely try!
