45 min1 serving

Ingredients

  • 1 medium eggplant (about 300g)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash the eggplant and pierce several times all over with a fork.

  2. 2

    Place on a foil-lined baking tray and roast for 30–35 minutes until completely collapsed and the flesh is very soft.

  3. 3

    Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Slice in half lengthwise and scoop out the soft flesh, discarding the skin.

  4. 4

    Place the flesh in a fine mesh sieve and press gently to drain off any bitter liquid.

  5. 5

    Mash with a fork or blend until smooth. A small drizzle of olive oil adds healthy fats and improves texture.
