Method
Put the lentils in a sieve, rinse under cold water.
Place a large, deep- sided non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and add 3 tablespoons of the oil. Once hot, add the aubergine and move around the pan to coat in the oil, then add a splash of water. Place the lid on the pan and sweat for 12 minutes. Once soft, transfer the aubergine to a plate.
Put the remaining tablespoon of oil in the pan and add the onion, courgettes, tomatoes and garlic. Put the lid on and sweat slowly for 10 minutes until softened.
Remove the lid then add the tomato purée and ras el hanout and cook for 1 minute.
Tip the aubergines and lentils into the pan and stir together. Pour in 800ml boiling water and simmer gently for 10 minutes. Remove the lid and cook for a further 10 minutes.
Take the pan off the heat and add the lime zest and juice, dill and parsley and stir. Season with salt and black pepper.
Serve in bowls and drizzle over the tahini dressing. Garnish with dill and pomegranate seeds. Enjoy with pitta bread if you wish.
