Ingredients
- 3 medium to large eggplants
- 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 small onion
- Small bunch of fresh parsley
- Salt
- Fresh cracked black pepper to taste
Instructions
-
1. Wash and dry your eggplants, with a fork pierce the skin in multiple places.

2. On a hot Barbecue grill roast your eggplants for about 20 minutes turning about 3 times.

3. With a knife pierce eggplant to see if it’s cooked through.
-
4. Remove and let it sit in a bowl until cooler to handle
-
5. On a cutting board cut eggplant in half, with the help of a large spoon scoop out all the flesh going as close as possible to the skin. That allows the charred part to be removed and that’s what gives it the smokiness flavor.

6. Let the pulp of eggplant drain in a colander.

7. Now chop your onion and parsley and set aside.
-
8. Chop the garlic on a cutting board.
-
