This makes approximately 4 cups of dip. I eat with pita chips. The photographer is Paul Cowan and the recipe originally came from adapting several recipes versions out there.
Ingredients:
2 medium eggplants
2 cloves garlic
2 tbsp fresh basil
1 fresh green chile pepper
2 tbsp tahini
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 sprig fresh mint
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a medium baking sheet.
2. Place eggplants on the baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, or until soft and seared.
3. In a food processor, grind together garlic, basil and green chile peppers.
4. Scoop eggplant from skins and mix with garlic mixture in the food processor.
5. Transfer the mixture to a medium serving dish. With a fork, mash in tahini, lemon juice and salt. Garnish with mint and olive oil.
