Ingredients:

Serving

2 large heavy eggplants
2 heads garlic
2/3 cup vidalia onion, chopped
2/3 cup red bell pepper, chopped
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (plus more to brush garlic)
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
parsley (optional) or tarragon (optional) or thyme

Directions:

Stab eggplant and roast in medium-hot oven along with garlic heads (brush garlic with olive oil) turn occasionally, until eggplant collapses and garlic is soft.
(You can use parchment paper or silpat pad to line a pan.) Can also be done in a covered grill.
Chop onion and red pepper.
After eggplant cools, scoop out flesh, discarding rind, and squeeze roasted garlic cloves into eggplant.
Either chop or puree eggplant/garlic in a processor or coarsely hand chop the mixture.
Add the chopped onion and red peppers but don't process further-the caviar should have crunch from these raw ingredients.
Add olive oil, Kosher salt, black pepper (and optional herbs &/or spices) and mix well.
Serve with regular or toasted pita, crackers or crudites.
