  1. In a small jar with a fitted lid, shake together the vinegar, oil, mustard and sugar. Season. Slice the aubergines lengthways, 1cm thick. Brush with some of the dressing and season.
  2. Heat a chargrill pan until very hot. Grill the aubergines until charred on both sides, about 1-2 minutes each. Divide between four plates.
  3. Blanch the beans for 1 minute, drain, rinse in cold water and dry on a tea towel. Divide between the plates and top with red onion, feta, pomegranate seeds and parsley. Pour the dressing over each plate. Alternatively, arrange on a large serving platter.
