Instructions

Step 1

Slice the eggplants into thin slices, add salt and allow to rest. The salt will allow the eggplants to dehydrate. With a dry cloth pad the eggplants to remove excess water.

Step 2

Brush the eggplant slices with olive oil and put in a preheated oven at 200C for 20-30mins. Keep in the oven until the eggplants soften with a crispy edge.

Step 3

In the meantime, whisk the yogurt with the crushed garlic, tahini and salt to taste. Whisk until texture is well mixed.

Step 4

Remove the eggplants, and right before serving, add the yogurt. You should assemble right before serving because you need to keep the yogurt mix cold, while the eggplant is warm.

Step 5

Decorate with pomegranate molasses. Garnish with fried pine seeds and pomegranate seeds.
