List of Ingredients
Makes about 3 cups
1 large globe eggplant, about 1 pound
2 tomatoes, peeled & chopped
1/2 yellow onion, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup pitted & coarsely chopped Kalamata olives
1/4 sup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1 to 1 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Recipe
Preheat oven to 300. Place the eggplant on a baking sheet. Bake until very soft and tender when pierced with a knife and the flesh pulls away from the browned skin, about 1 1/4 hours. Remove from the oven and let cool. When the eggplant is cool enough to handle, peel it and coarsely chop the flesh. Set aside. In a blender or food processor, combine the tomatoes, onion, chopped garlic and olive oil. Process until smooth. Add the eggplant, olives, cilantro, lemon juice and pepper. Process until smooth.
