Instructions

  1. 1

    Roast the Eggplant

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and score the flesh with a knife. Brush the cut sides with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet, cut side down. Roast in the oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the skin is wrinkled and the flesh is soft.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Eggplant Mixture

    Once roasted, let the eggplants cool slightly. Scoop out the flesh and place it in a mixing bowl. Add minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mash the mixture with a fork until well combined but still slightly chunky.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Serve the eggplant salad warm or at room temperature with pieces of naan bread for dipping.
