Ingredients
Instructions
Step
1
Wrap eggplant with a sheet of foil and roast on an open flame for 8-10 minutes. Turn eggplant with tongs every 1-2 minutes to make sure it is evenly charred. The skin should be evenly blistered, and the eggplant should be soft to the touch. To check whether it is fully cooked, prick the eggplant with a fork to check the softness. Roast for a few more minutes if needed.
Step
2
Once the eggplant is roasted, set aside to cool. Once cooled, peel the skin off with your fingers. Remove the stem with a knife. Chop the eggplant finely or mash with a potato masher. Set aside.
