1

Cut the eggplants in half (lengthwise) and place on a broiler pan (cut side down).

Put under a broiler until the outside skin is charred black and the pulp inside soft. You can test for its readiness by inserting a knife or fork to see if it passes through easily.

Once it is cooked you can easily peel off the skin. Discard the skin.
4

Place the eggplant pulp in a bowl and let it cool for 1 hr in the refrigerator. After cooling, some water might sweat out of the eggplant pulp; discard the extra liquid before using.
5

In a food processor, blend together the eggplant, crushed garlic, tahini, lemon juice and salt. Make sure to have the processor on slow mix.
6

Adjust salt, lemon or tahini according to taste.
7

Serve in a shallow dish with a drizzle of olive oil and pita bread.
8

Garnish with chopped parsley or fresh pomegranate seeds.

I saw this recipe in a Turkish cookbook. This specific recipe is my own variation, as I changed the original recipe slightly to make a manageable amount with revised procedures.You can also grill the eggplant in an oven (bake for 1 hour after making cuts).I used an American eggplant, but you can also use the slim and long type.Try serving this dish with hummus (chickpea paste -and tortillas.
