Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh eggplant
  • 1 tablespoon pine nuts, finely chopped
  • 12 lemon, juiced
  • 1 pinch herb-seasoned salt
  • 1 pinch kala jeera, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon grapeseed oil

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • You should use a whole eggplant, roughly one pound in weight.
  • Cut several slits into the eggplant with a knife.
  • Put it in a 8x8 baking dish and roast it for 60 minutes, or until the skin has browned and it begins to flatten on itself.
  • Remove it from the oven, and let cool for a few minutes.
  • Scoop the meat out of the eggplant, and put it in a colander.
  • Make sure there is no skin in the colander; it will add a bitter flavor.
  • Squeeze all the excess moisture out of the eggplant meat.
  • Put it in a food processor with the rest of the ingredients.
  • Blend until smooth.
