Eggplant is great cooked in a Steam Combi oven. The steam aids in the breaking down of the flesh making for a quicker cook and a delicious almost sweet result.
This is a great dip – and when eggplant are plentiful its a cheap alternative to hummus with a much softer taste . You can adapt this recipe and add whatever flavours you want. I used smoked paprika for that warm smokey flavour but its equally great with lemon pepper with preserved lemon or roasted capsicums added to the blended mixture
