Ingredients

Fire-Roasted Dip

  • 1 eggplant

  • 2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons Gefen Olive Oil, divided

  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder, divided

  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided

  • 1 shallot, diced

  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, quartered

  • 5 cloves garlic

  • 1 teaspoon oregano, divided

  • 1 tablespoon Gefen Mayonnaise

  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro or parsley, plus more for garnish

  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest, plus more for garnish

  • silan, such as Beleaves Date Syrup, for garnish

  • pistachios, for garnish

Directions

1.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius).

2.

Cut the eggplant lengthwise, then score with a knife. Drizzle with two teaspoons olive oil, then sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place face down on a baking sheet.

3.

Combine shallot, tomatoes, garlic, two tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining garlic powder and pepper in a bowl. Toss to combine. Pour mixture onto the baking sheet, arranging it in a single layer.

4.

Roast for 25–30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through. When finished, the tomatoes should be slightly charred and the garlic and eggplant should be easily pierced with a fork.

5.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes.

6.

Squeeze the eggplant flesh into a bowl. Combine with the rest of the vegetables by mashing and mixing all the vegetables with a fork. Add the mayonnaise, cilantro or parsley, lemon juice and zest, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and mix to combine.

7.

Before serving, drizzle with silan and sprinkle with pistachios, herbs, and zest.
