I love this recipe as it only has veggies and oil and so easy to make. You can use it as a dip, as a spread on toast or in your sandwiches. It's very versatile!

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: 4 to 6 servings

Ingredients:

1 large eggplant, cubed
1/2 large onion
3 cloves garlic
3 tsp cooking oil
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

Preheat oven to 450F or use the top rack of the broiler. Place eggplant on a lined baking sheet, toss with 1 teaspoon of the oil and cook for 8 to 10 minutes. Flip once at some point in the middle of baking.

Chop onions and cook in a pan on medium heat with 1 teaspoon of oil for a few minutes. Onions should be browned on the edges.

Chop the garlic, add remaining teaspoon of oil to the pan and cook for about a minute, stirring constantly until all is caramelized.

Add onions and garlic to cooked eggplant in a large bowl or blender. Puree until creamy. I used an emersion blender in a large bowl. Salt and pepper to taste.
