Eggplants or aubergines are incredibly versatile and one of few vegetables that I can enjoy without having stomach issues. This warm Middle Eastern eggplant salad on a bed of tahini-yoghurt is great with roasted meat or poultry, especially if they are beautifully charred. Zhoug is a popular Middle Eastern condiment made with fresh cilantro, jalapeños, cumin and garlic. Instead of this spicy cilantro-based sauce, you can also drizzle the roasted eggplants with a little pomegranate molasses. The tahini yoghurt and zhoug can be prepared one day ahead.

- Cut the aubergine into 3cm thick slices. Brush the olive oil over flesh and skin of eggplant, and sprinkle the flesh evenly with salt.
- Mix together the yoghurt, tahini, lemon juice and crushed garlic cloves. Finish off with a sprinkle of salt.
- Heat a grill pan until hot. Add the aubergine to the grill pan and cook for 6-8 minutes per side until tender and charred.
- To serve, swirl the tahini yoghurt on serving plates, add on aubergine and drizzle with Zhoug. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and pomegranate seeds.

Soy gran aficionada a la berenjena, las preparo de cantidad de formas distintas, por eso tu receta me interesa, ese relleno me parece muy bueno, quitando el cilantro que no me gusta, lo demás es perfecto.

Eggplant and tahini go so well together. So tasty and such a stunning the presentation!
I know from the ingredients that this must taste delicious, but I love how you present your dishes Angie. They are truly works of art!
This dish looks particularly good!
I love the caramelization of the eggplant slices, and I can only imagine how amazing it is with yogurt and the hot sauce. And like all of your dishes, it's so pretty! :-) ~Valentina
You also make one of the most interesting sauces and dips! The eggplants are happy to be so well-dressed ;)
You made the most exquisite cuisine like fresh out of a fine-dining restaurant :)
This recipe is right up my street. I've only been able to eat aubergine in recent years, so I still feel I have lots to learn.
