Method
Char the aubergines over embers or on a low flame, turning them, until they are very soft.
Peel them while still hot, holding each by the stem. Cut off the stems, remove the very seedy parts and put the flesh in a deep bowl.
Add the lemon juice, olive oil and salt little by little, tasting as you go. Mash with a fork into a purée and leave to cool.
