This recipe shows you how to make a creamy, silky aubergine dip from the Middle East.
Ingredients
| 3 | aubergines |
| 1 tbsp | tahini |
| 1 tbsp | yoghurt |
| 2 | garlic cloves, crushed |
| 2 tbsps | extra virgin olive oil |
| 1/2 |
lemon, squeezed |
| salt and pepper to taste |
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/ gas mark 6.
- Brush each aubergine with oil and sprinkle with salt, then place on a baking tray to roast in the oven for roughly an hour.
- When the aubergines are soft beneath the skin, remove them from the oven. Cut them in half lengthways and scoop out the contents into a bowl, avoiding adding the bitter skin.
- Add the tahini, lemon, garlic, yoghurt, and oil and mix with a fork.
