Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas mark 6, and line a large baking tray with baking paper. Halve the aubergines lengthways and score the flesh in a criss-cross pattern. Put on the prepared baking tray, mist with cooking spray and bake for 45 minutes, until tender.

Make the glaze: combine the honey, soy sauce and chilli flakes in a small bowl. Brush one-third of the mixture over the aubergine halves and bake for another 5 minutes. Repeat twice, until all the glaze is used and the aubergines are tender and sticky.
