Guest guest Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Basically, it's hummus with eggplants instead of chickpeas. Here's what I did. 2 large Italian ( " regular " ) eggplants juice of 1-2 lemons 1-2 garlic cloves tahini (I think I used around 1/4 cup) salt to taste olive oil, divided (I think I used a tablespoon in the mixture, and about the same amount on top) paprika Preheat oven to 400F. Cut the stem ends off the eggplants, prick them all over with a fork, and bake them on a baking sheet for about an hour, turning once about halfway through. When they're done, they should be very soft. Cool them just until they're cool enough to handle. Halve the eggplants, and scoop the soft insides into a bowl, blender container, or food-processor container (I used my handheld immersion blender and a bowl). Add the remaining ingredients except for some olive oil and the paprika. Pour into a serving bowl. To serve, drizzle some olive oil over the top and sprinkle with paprika. serene -- " A conservative is someone who worships the views of dead liberals.
