Meanwhile, put the spinach in a large colander and pour over a kettle of boiling water to wilt.

Dollop a spoonful of the cheesy mix in the centre of each aubergne slice, fold over to make a parcel and lay, sealed side down, in an ovenproof dish. Pour over tomato sauce, sprinkle with breadcrumbs and cheese, and bake for 20-25 mins until golden and piping hot.
