Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 eggplant or 4 small eggplants
  • ½ cup tahini high quality
  • 1 teaspoon sumac
  • ½ teaspoon Celtic salt or kosher salt
  • ¼ cup cilantro chopped
  • ¼ cup pomegranate arils
  • 2-3 garlic finely minced, cloves

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Wash eggplants well, removing any dirt. Cut eggplants in half, including top and stem. Score inside of eggplants in a grid shape, taking care to not cut through flesh all the way through.
  3. Lay eggplants on a baking sheet and roast in oven until browned and soft, about 35 minutes.
  4. When eggplant is soft and browned after about 35 minutes, remove from oven. Let cool until cool enough to hold comfortably.
  5. With a butter knife or spoon, cut through lines you scored in eggplant to release eggplant flesh from skin, it should be in clumps/chunks.
  6. Pour tahini, minced garlic, pomegranate seeds, sumac, and olive oil over eggplant. Top with chopped cilantro or mint and serve with crackers, vegetables, pita, or bread to dip!
