SERVES
Serves 4 as a starter
ingredients
- 1 packed of paprika crackers
IN STOCK
- 2 large aubergines
- Juice of 1 lemon
- ½ tsp sweet paprika
OUT OF STOCK
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/2 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 2-3 tbsp tahini
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
IN STOCK
- 2 tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley
Method:
- Pierce the aubergines to prevent them from bursting then cook them over a gas hob (right on top of the flame, but surround the rings with tinfoil) (or on a barbecue or under the grill), turning frequently until very soft, charred and collapsed. Allow to cool in a colander, discarding the liquid.
- Slit the aubergines lengthways and scoop out the flesh, discarding the skins. Place the flesh in a colander and leave to drain for 30 minutes.
- Add half of the lemon juice, the crushed garlic, sweet paprika, ground cumin and coriander and tahini to the aubergine and mash together well.
- Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and season to taste.
- Spoon the aubergine dip into a serving dish, drizzle with extra olive oil, sprinkle over the chopped herbs and add a dusting of sweet paprika. Serve with the paprika crackers.
