Ingredients
- 1 tbsp The Spice People’s Moroccan Ras el Hanout
- 1 tbsp The Spice People’s North African Harissa
- 4 eggplants
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 bunch fresh mint, chopped
- 1 lemon
- 1 cup Greek yoghurt
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 5 cloves garlic, crushed
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Cut the eggplants in half and score a diamond pattern into each half – be sure not to cut through the whole way so the skin remains intact. Salt the eggplants and leave cut-side down on a paper towel for 10-15 mins to remove some of the water.
- While the eggplants stand, add the olive oil, juice of half the lemon, the salt, half the mint leaves, the Ras el Hanout and the garlic and stir to combine.
Spoon the spice and oil mix on the eggplant halves and rub it in well. Place them cut-side up on a baking tray and place in the oven to cook for about 30 minutes, or until they’re soft inside. - While the eggplants are baking, combine the Harissa spice mix, yoghurt, the rest of the lemon and garlic, and a pinch of salt and stir to combine.
Once the eggplants are finished baking, remove them from the oven and serve with the harissa yoghurt and the remaining mint leaves and enjoy!
