1
Prepare the Eggplant
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Poke holes in the eggplant with a fork and place it on a baking sheet. Roast for about 30-40 minutes or until the skin is charred and the inside is soft.
2
Blend Ingredients
Once the eggplant is cool, scoop out the flesh and place it in a food processor. Add tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt. Blend until smooth.
3
Mix in Yogurt and Herbs
Transfer the blended mixture to a bowl and fold in the yogurt and chopped fresh parsley. Adjust seasoning with salt or lemon juice to taste.

Serve
