mince the garlic then mix together with the olive oil, marmite, rice vinegar and brown sugar to create the glaze
slice the aubergine down the middle and score the flesh in squares by making diagonal cuts
add the aubergine slices to a baking tray (flesh side up) and brush the glaze across the flesh, ensuring it is able to go through the diagonal cuts
bake the aubergine at 180 for 30 minutes
meanwhile, cook the rice in water as per packet instructions, and serve beneath the cooked aubergine
