How to do it:
- Heat your oven to 190C. 
- Place your aubergines in a baking dish and pour over the olive oil. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper and some dried herbs, then roast until soft (about 30 minutes). 
- While the aubergine is cooking, add the chopped onion, garlic, and chilli to some oil in a pan on your hob and gently sauté until soft. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 10 minutes. 
- Add a splash or two of vinegar and your black beans along with the bouillon. Stir well and heat thoroughly. Check for seasoning and add a little more bouillon powder if you want to. 
- Once the aubergines are cooked, divide the bean mixture between the two and sprinkle some fresh parsley on top. - Enjoy with a crisp salad or some lightly steamed greens.
