This simple and seasonally tomato carpaccio with eggplants is refreshing and deliciously healthy. Make use of different shapes, colours and sizes of those peak summer tomatoes from your local farmers market or your own garden. It's quick and shockingly easy to make, and will become a favorite if you enjoy tomatoes and eggplants. Despite taking only 20 minutes to prepare and cook, it looks super impressive when served.

    This looks and sounds delicious. I love eggplant but noticed each time I ate it, I felt weird. Unfortunately, now I am violently allergic. The last time I ate it the reaction was like a thousand bees stinging me in the mouth. Not going to risk another one.

    I just love the use of nuts in this recipe. It’s so pretty and the combination of textures must be wild! Cooked eggplant is so creamy.
