"I can't vouch for the authenticity of this dish as actually being South African but I can assure you that it is different and delicious.

"Make it ahead of time and then cut it into wedges, like a cake. The layers of roasted vegetables look so beautiful. One adaptation that I do, is put a whole layer of goat cheese in the center - its wonderful. Another thing I've done is to make a light basil vinaigrette to drizzle over each serving.

"Here in Morocco we have a few very good eggplant salads (slatas). The best known being Zalouk. Braniya is the Moroccan Arabic word for eggplant and this salad is begged for by hubby and friends!
