    Prepare the Eggplant

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prick the eggplant with a fork and place it on a baking sheet. Roast for 30-40 minutes until the skin is charred and the flesh is soft. Allow to cool.

    Once the eggplant is cool, scoop the flesh into a food processor. Add tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and ground cumin. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Chop the lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and onion. Slice the kalamata olives.
