- Ingredients
- 2 Eggplant
- 1 shallot
- 2 garlic cloves
- 4 Tbsps olive oil
- 1 Tbsp Sesame seeds
- 1 Tbsp chopped parsley
- salt
- cayenne pepper
- 1 splash lemon juice

Preparation
1.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (approximately 350°F).
2.
Rinse the eggplant and prick all over with a fork. Place in a baking dish and bake until soft, about 15-20 minutes. Remove the eggplant from the oven and allow to cool slightly before cutting it in half. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon and mash with a fork if necessary. Chop some of the peel and stir into the eggplant puree for color.
3.
Peel and finely chop the shallots and garlic. Stir the shallots, garlic, olive oil, sesame oil, and parsley into the eggplant puree. Mix in the lemon juice, and season with salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Allow to cool and check for seasoning. Serve garnished with fresh parsley.
4.
This dip tastes great with crispbread.
