1. Preheat oven to high broil (or medium if you have the ability) and position a rack at the top of the oven.
2. Slice your eggplant into 1/4 inch rounds and sprinkle with sea salt and place in a colander in the sink to drain any excess liquid. After 10 minutes, rinse slightly and then pat dry between two towels.
3. Arrange on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of sea salt. Roast for 5-10 minutes, turning once or twice, until the eggplant is softened and golden brown. Remove from pan, stack and wrap the rounds in foil to lock in moisture – wait 5 minutes.
4. Peel away most of the skin of the eggplant (a little is OK) and add flesh to a food processor. It should be soft and tender and the skin should come off easy.

Easy Baba Ganoush without Tahini The Fiery Vegetarian

1. Roast your aubergines, and your red pepper, turning until properly charred and blackened on each side. Poke your aubergine with a knife in the middle to check that it’s soft all the way through. Slip your roasted red pepper into a ziplock bag and leave the vegetables to cool.
2. When the vegetables are cool enough to handle, remove the pepper from the ziplock bag and peel off the skin. It should slip right off. Roughly chop the flesh and add to a blender.
3. Peel the aubergines. Roughly chop the flesh, mix with a little salt, and leave in a colander to drain for at least fifteen minutes. I sometimes skip this step but I always regret it as the dip then doesn’t keep as well in the fridge.
4. Squeeze as much excess moisture as possible out of the aubergine and add to the blender.
