Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Eggplants
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and score the flesh with a knife. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Place the eggplants cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 30 minutes, or until the flesh is soft and slightly charred.
Blend the Ingredients
- Once the eggplants are cool enough to handle, scoop the flesh into a blender. Add tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, and pepper.
- Blend until smooth and creamy, adjusting seasoning as necessary.
Serve
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve with pita bread or fresh vegetables.

Notes
For a smokier flavor, you can grill the eggplants instead of roasting them.
