Crispy Aubergine Slices

A great recipie from a British Weight watchers magazine. It is half a point per serving. These crispy slices are just brilliant! they make an alternative to chips or fries and they are awesome in a sandwich with some low fat mayo. When I make these I often cheat and but ready sliced and chargrilled frozen slices which work just as well. Tip - if you cut the slices quite thinly they take on a great chewy texture.
