Prick the eggplant skin with a fork in several places. Trim the eggplant's top green part and slice it in half lengthwise.
1
Place the eggplant halves on the prepared baking sheet, and skin down the sheet. Drizzle one tablespoon of olive oil on each eggplant and rub to cover the flesh.
2
Roast the eggplant for 25-30 minutes at 375°F (190°C) until the flesh is brown, the eggplant skin blisters, and the flesh softens.
3
Switch the oven to broil mode, and broil for 5-8 minutes, turning the eggplant frequently to broil both sides – this adds a lot of flavors.
4
When baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool down for 10 minutes. Use a fork to scrape off the soft roasted eggplant flesh and place it in a food processor.
5
Add the remaining ingredients crushed garlic cloves, lemon juice, tahini paste, salt, cumin, and Parsley. Process on medium speed until creamy and smooth.
