Easy Eggplant (Aubergine) Dip & Sandwich Spread image

Here is a recipe I pulled out of my collection when I was given a couple of eggplants. I had forgotten how good it is. I used it as a sandwich spread but I think it would make an amazing dip.

Time 1h40m

Yield 3 cups, approx.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 medium eggplant
1 -2 tomatoes, washed
1 -2 avocado, peeled and halved
garlic, crushed
cayenne
soy sauce
tahini (optional)

Steps:

  • Pierce the eggplant with a fork first in a few places so it wont explode in the oven.
  • Bake the eggplant (ahead of time if necessary) for 1 hour, or until it is soft throughout.
  • Cool the eggplant, cut in half and let drain.
  • Remove the skin.
  • Mash in tomatoes, avocados, garlic and spices to taste.
  • For a thicker dip, add tahini.
  • (all the ingredients except tahini can be placed in a blender with the eggplant. The dip will be thinner, so add tahini or one more avocado mashed by hand).
