Ingredients

  1. 4Baby eggplants (or 2 big eggplants)
  2. 1/4 cupparsley (no need to chop)
  3. 1/4 tspcumin
  4. 2 tbsptahini paste (sesame seed paste)
  5. 1salt to taste (i start with a 1/4 teaspoon)
  6. 1/2lemon juiced
  7. 1garlic clove roughly chopped
  8. 1olive oil (about 2 to 3 tablespoons)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400. Place eggplant on a cookie sheet lined with foil and sprayed with cooking spray to prevent sticking

  2. 2

    Add eggplant to cookie sheet and roast for 45 min, turning every 13 min.

  3. 3

    Take eggplant out and slice down the middle halfway to help the cooling process. Cool about 10 min.

  4. 4

    Add all ingredients to food processor. Scrape out the eggplant from its skin with a spoon into the food processor.

  5. 5

    Blend for 30 seconds. Check consistency. I like mine like a creamy paste. Not too thin and not too thick. Drizzle in more oil or a tablespoon of water at a time, if desired to thin out dip. When adding liquid make sure food processor is running. Taste for salt. Add more if desired.

  6. 6

    You really can't over process this dip, so keep going until smooth and creamy!

  7. 7

    Chill for atleast an hour in fridge.

  8. 8

    Serve with warn pita, pita chips, carrots, celery, as a sauce to kabob skewers or in a sandwich wrap.

  9. 9

    Check out my kefta kabob recipe and use as a condiment!
