Ingredients

How to make it

  • . Pierce the skins of the eggplants in a few places with a fork.
  • Place each eggplant directly in a medium-high flame and turn occasionally.
  • The skins of the eggplants should eventually blister and shrivel.
  • Remove the eggplants from the heat once they are thoroughly charred and you can sense that the flesh inside has become heavy with moisture.
  • It may take about 30 minutes to arrive at this point.
  • Let cool.
  • . Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise, scoop out their flesh and put in a colander.
  • Discard the peels.
  • Press the eggplant flesh firmly against the colander to remove excess liquid.
  • Mash the eggplants with a fork in a large bowl.
  • . Combine the mashed eggplant flesh with the tomato, bell pepper, parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin and salt and pepper.
  • Stir and serve.
  • Note: The eggplant gets its charred flavor from cooking directly over a fire, although households with electric-only ranges can make do with oven-roasting.
