Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lb eggplant
3 clove garlic, crushed
1 1/2 tsp sweet paprika
1 1/2 tsp ground cummin
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (or to taste)
2 cups chopped tomato
1/2 cup water
1 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 tsp lemon juice
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (omit if you don't like cilantro, or you can replace it with 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley leaves)
3 1/3 Tbsp olive oil, divided
FOR SERVING
sliced deli bread or loaf of crusty bread cut into large chunks (to scoop up the sauce)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Drizzle 1 Tbsp olive oil on the parchment paper.
  • 2. Peel the eggplant and slice lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices. Evenly arrange the eggplant slices on the parchment. (You may need a second parchment-lined baking sheet to accommodate extra eggplant slices.) Drizzle 1 Tbsp olive oil over the eggplant slices, sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Roast in a oven for 35 minutes or until the eggplant is cooked and golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
  • 3. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for around 30 seconds. Add the paprika, cumin, and hot pepper flakes and cook in the hot oil for 10 seconds. Then stir in the chopped tomatoes, water, salt, black pepper, and bay leaf, let the sauce simmer for about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • 4. Returning to the cooled eggplant, start chopping the eggplant slices into bite-sized cubes. Add the eggplant cubes to the sauté pan, stirring to combine. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and let it simmer for another 5 minutes. The eggplant should be tender and fully cooked, but it shouldn't be disintegrating and pieces of the eggplant flesh shouldn't be flaking off.
  • 5. Remove pan from heat, and stir in the lemon juice and chopped cilantro. Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings, if needed. Just before serving, drizzle about 1 tsp (or less) of olive oil in a random, thin line across the surface of the sauce. Serve hot or very warm with sliced bread or lots of bread chunks to scoop up the delicious Eggplant Zaalouk.

  • Start with the grilling of the aubergine. You can do this on a charcoal grill, or just hold the aubergine (with tongs) above the flame of a gas hob. You can use a camping cooker for this too (like I do).
  • Grill the aubergine until it is cooked evenly, and you can easily squeeze the flesh of the aubergine (careful not to burn your fingers).
  • Place the aubergine in a tupperware, close the lid and leave to cool (The aubergine will continue cooking a bit while doing this).

  • Place it over a hot grill (BBQ) or under the broiler (grill) and cook a couple minutes each side, turning as it softens. Once it is completely soft (you can test with a skewer) remove from heat and cover with foil to let it steam for around 20 minutes, ideally. You can cook the eggplant ahead and leave to cool completely, if that suits better.
  • Chop up the eggplant flesh, with or without the skin as you prefer. If you like, peel the tomatoes or simple remove core and dice. Finely chop the garlic.
  • Warm the oil in a medium pan over a medium heat. Add the garlic, cumin and paprika and cook for a minute to get them fragrant then add the tomato and salt. Cook for a minute or two to soften then add the eggplant. Cook the mixture down, stirring regularly, to evaporate some of the liquid (around 15 minutes or so).
