Ingredients

• 1 eggplant cut in 1/2inch slices
• 2-3 cloves garlic
• 1/2 tbsp white miso paste
• 1/2 tbsp mint chopped
• 1/16 tsp paprika
• 1/8 cup tahini
• 1 tbsp parsley leaves chopped
• 1/4 tsp cumin
• pepper to taste
• 1/8 cup lemon juice about 1-2 lemons

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Place the eggplant slices and unpeeled garlic cloves on the two baking sheets, spreading them out evenly, and roast for 20 minutes. Turn over, and continue roasting on the other side about 10 or 15 more minutes, or until thoroughly cooked and very soft. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
3. While the eggplant and garlic are roasting, combine the tahini, lemon juice and zest, miso, parsley, mint, cumin and smoked paprika in in a food processor or blender. Pulse to blend and allow to rest in the food processor.
4. When the eggplant and garlic have finished cooking, peel the garlic, then add them to the food processor. Process until completely smooth and creamy, adding water and/or more lemon juice a little at a time to thin as needed.
