Ingredients

    * 2 cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
    * 1 eggplant
    * 3 tablespoons of tahini
    * 3 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    * ½ cup olive oil
    * 3/4 teaspoon cumin
    * 3 clove of garlic, crushed

Directions

Wash and dry eggplant. Remove the stem and cut the eggplant in round pieces about 1/8” thick ( about 1 cup). Rub olive oil and lightly salt each eggplant round and place in oven under broiler for three minutes each side. Watch closely so that the eggplant does not burn.

In a blender or food processor, blend the chickpeas. Add eggplant, the rest of the olive oil, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, until the ingredients form a paste-like consistency. Pour the mixture into a large bowl.
