Ingredients:

  • 2 lb eggplant
  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 4 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup parsley

Directions:

  1. Wash the eggplants and place them on the hot grill on medium heat.
  2. Keep turning until the skin is charred and the eggplant is very soft.
  3. Place the eggplant on a platter and slit it open to allow it to cool
  4. When cool enough to handle, scrape out and chop the inside and discard the charred skin. If some charred skin get in it, that's ok, because you want a nice smoky taste
  5. In a food processor, or by hand, combine the tahini with the lemon juice and garlic until pale and mix into the eggplant with the parsley
  6. Season to taste with salt
  7. Serve at room temperature. May be made ahead.
