From mollyscookin 15 years agoIngredients
- 1 eggplant (about 1 pound) shopping list

How to make it
- Preheat broiler or prepare grill. Prick eggplant in several places with a fork
- Broil or grill about 3 to 4 inches from heat turning every10 minutes or so, until eggplant is charred all over and very soft. This should take about 45 minutes
- Put eggplant in a bowl to cool and collect juices
- When eggplant is cooled enough to touch (it is hot in the middle!) peel and discard skin.
- Transfer pulp to a blender, food processor, or food mill.
- Add all remaingin ingredients except for parsley and puree until very smooth, with no visible eggplant seeds scraping down sides with a rubber spatula as necessary.
- Transfer to serving bowl and sprinkle with parsley.
