Ingredients 

  • 3 eggplants medium-sized
  • ½ lemom juice only
  • 1 onion diced
  • 4 Tbsps olive oil
  • 1 tsp sumac
  • sea salt to taste

Instructions

  • Rinse the eggplants and heat the grill pan.
  • Grill the eggplants on each side; don’t forget to turn them over every 10 minutes or so. Grill them until they are covered with a black crust.
  • Peel the eggplants, cleaning off the black crust. Put them on a wooden platter and let them drain for at least half an hour. The liquid is bitter. The longer you drain them, the sweeter they’ll be.
  • Puree the eggplants in a food processor. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth and mousse-like.
  • Serve with sumac on top.
