Ingredients
-
2 large eggplant
-
3 tablespoons tahini
-
3 tablespoons lemon juice
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
2 teaspoons salt
-
¾ teaspoon smoked paprika
-
½ teaspoon cumin
-
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
-
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
Directions
-
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Using a fork, poke holes in the eggplant so steam will be able to release during cooking.
-
Place eggplant on the preheated grill. Grill until skins are charred, about 30 minutes, turning occasionally. Transfer to a baking pan, cover, and let steam for 10 minutes.
-
Using your hands, carefully remove the stem and the skin; the skin should be split open and peel off easily. Discard the skin and place flesh in a colander; let drain for 20 minutes. Press out any remaining moisture with paper towels.
-
Place eggplant in a food processor. Add tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, smoked paprika, and cumin. Pulse until smooth. Add parsley and olive oil and pulse until oil is incorporated.
