Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large aubergine
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 medium garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons tahini
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prick the aubergines a few times with a fork and place on a baking sheet.
Roast the aubergines in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until the skin is charred and the flesh is very soft.
Remove the aubergines from the oven and let them cool slightly until they can be handled safely.
Once cool, cut the aubergines open and scoop out the flesh into a medium bowl, discarding the skin.
Add lemon juice, olive oil, peeled and minced garlic, tahini, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the aubergine flesh.
Mash and mix the ingredients together until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Taste the spread and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the aubergine spread to a serving dish and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
Serve with your choice of bread, crackers, or raw vegetables.
