Unsaved Grilled Baba Ghanoush

Ingredients

  • 2 Large purple eggplant
  • 4 Peeled garlic cloves, smashed or crushed
  • 2 Large lemon(s), juiced
  • 1/4 cup Tahini
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Italian parsley, chopped coarsely

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill to 350ºF.
  2. Trim off tops and ends of eggplants and cut in half from top to bottom.
  3. Spray grill liberally with non stick spray to keep eggplants from sticking. Grill, cut side down, 8 to 10 minutes or until nicely charred.
  4. Flip eggplants, lower grill temperature or move to indirect side of grill, and continue to cook until soft, about 8 to 10 minutes maximum. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  5. In a food processor, scoop out eggplant meat, discarding skins.
  6. Add garlic, lemon juice, tahini, and chopped parsley. Pulse until smooth then season to taste with salt and pepper.
  7. Chef's note: My favorite way to serve this is on grilled bread topped with Castilla Cippolini Onions in balsamic. It's also great tossed with warm pasta or on grilled chicken.
