Ingredients

How to make it

  • Take rinsed eggplant and either grill (like when you are roasting green peppers) on your outside grill or inside grill pan (like I did - see photos) turning it over every so often, till it seems very mushy inside.
  • No grill pan or outside grill? No Problem! Place eggplant in tinfoil loosely wrapped onto a cookie sheet and bake in oven for 20-30 minutes say at 350 degrees.
  • Let eggplant cool, you can also put plastic over it (see photo the way I did) to help skin loosen from the "fruit" inside. That was the hardest part of this dish!
  • Gently remove skin from eggplant, and chop into small bits, it will be very mushy but keep seeds in and set aside.
  • In bowl, put tahini, 2 tablespoons water – start stirring till the color of tahini gets lighter and stir till smooth.
  • Take juice of one lemon and put into bowl and stir with tahini.
  • Add all other ingredients including chopped eggplant and stir.
  • Taste-test and add more salt and pepper if you would like.
  • Drizzle good olive oil over final dish just prior to serving.
  • Chill till ready to serve.
