Ingredients
- 1 large eggplant
- 1 teaspoon salt divided
- 1 head garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium lemon juiced (about 1/4 cup)
- 1/4 cup tahini paste
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
- While the oven is preheating, slice eggplant in half lengthwise. Use a fork to poke a few dozen holes on the skin side of the eggplant. Sprinkle flesh with 1/2 teaspoon salt and let sweat 10 minutes. Rinse and pat dry. Place eggplant flesh side down on prepared baking sheet.
- Cut the tip of the garlic off to expose cloves inside. Place garlic onto a square of aluminum foil. Drizzle a little of the olive oil over the exposed garlic cloves and wrap tightly with foil. Place garlic on the sheet pan with the eggplant. Drizzle remaining olive oil over eggplant.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes until eggplant is tender.
- Use a large spoon to scoop the flesh from the eggplant and place in a food processor. Gently squeeze garlic cloves out of their peels and into the food processor.
- Add in lemon juice, tahini paste, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Puree until smooth.
- Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate 2 hours before serving.
- Sprinkle with parsley to serve and drizzle on additional olive oil, if desired. Serve with pita chips or pita bread.
