Ingredients: 2 medium firm eggplants; 12 large green lipped mussels, steamed open; 2 tablespoons sesame oil; 10 Thai shallots or European shallots, finely sliced; Juice and zest for 3 1/2 limes; 2 stems lemon grass, tender part only, very thinly sliced; 2 tablespoons Thai fish sauce; 1 tablespoon sugar, caster or golden; 2 long red chiles, finely shredded; Small bunch, coriander

Directions

Pierce the whole eggplants and grill for 15 minutes, turning frequently, to blacken the skin. Allow to cool slightly and then cut away the stem. Peel and slice lengthways into 4, then crossways into 3 to make 12 pieces from each. Allow to drain through a sieve for 10 minutes or so but don't crush too much. Dress mussels in the oil and tip into a bowl. Dress with all the other ingredients except the coriander. Add the eggplant and toss to combine. Allow to sit for 1 hour for the flavors to combine and then serve garnished with coriander leaves. For extra luxury, use cooked lobster meat and add sesame oil to the dressing.
