Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large aubergines (eggplants)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 large garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
Wash the aubergines and cut them into thick 1-inch rounds.
Place the aubergine rounds on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt, ground black pepper, and paprika.
Brush each aubergine round generously with the olive oil and seasoning mixture.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 35 minutes, turning the rounds halfway through, until they are golden and tender.
While the aubergines are roasting, prepare the dressing by whisking together fresh lemon juice and tahini in a small bowl.
Remove the aubergines from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter.
Drizzle the tahini dressing over the roasted aubergines.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the top for garnish.
Serve immediately, or at room temperature, as a main dish or as a flavorful side.
