MIDDLE EASTERN FIRE-ROASTED EGGPLANT DIP: BABAGANOUSH

Steps:
- There are 2 ways to cook the eggplants. The first way, on the stovetop, is my favorite because it yields a much smokier-flavored babaganoush.
- For the stovetop method: Turn 2 burners up full-throttle. Place 1 eggplant on each burner and, using a pair of tongs, turn every 5 minutes or so, until the entire surface of eggplant is charred and crispy, about 15 minutes. Don't worry if the eggplant deflates a little. Remove from the burner and place on a plate to cool.
- For the oven method: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Prick the eggplants all over with a fork (this keeps the eggplant from exploding in the oven, so don't skip this step). Place on a baking sheet and roast until softened, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
- Regardless of the cooking method you choose, once the eggplant is cool enough to touch with your hands, carefully peel the charred skin off the eggplant. Discard the skin. Move the flesh onto your chopping board, slice off the stem and discard. Using your knife, mince the flesh until almost smooth. Scoop into a bowl.
- Add the lemon juice, tahini, parsley, and a little salt and pepper. Whisk together and taste for seasoning. Feel free to add more lemon juice, more salt and pepper... it will vary depending on the size of your eggplant, and how you like your 'ganoush! Serve with pita chips.

MIDDLE-EASTERN EGGPLANT ROUNDS
High in protein and fiber, hummus can be more than a dip in this guest-worthy dish. Antioxidant-rich eggplant is stacked with hummus and flavored with lemon and parsley for a fresh, low-calorie taste.

Steps:
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the eggplant rounds and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover and cook until brown on the bottoms, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and, working quickly, flip each eggplant round and top with a dollop of hummus and a cherry tomato quarter, rounded-side down. Cover and cook until heated through and the bottoms are golden brown, about 7 minutes.
- Transfer to a platter using a spatula. Sprinkle with the parsley and lemon zest and serve.

LEBANESE EGGPLANT STEW
Steps:
- Combine the eggplant, zucchini, tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, and garlic in the slow cooker insert.
- Using an electric coffee mill or a mortar and pestle, grind the peppercorns, allspice berries, cinnamon, and red pepper flakes to a powder.
- Add the spices to the vegetables, cover, and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Stir in the olive oil and parsley, and add salt to taste just before serving.
- Suggested Beverage
- I think I'd choose a Merlot or Cabernet to accompany this dish.
BABA GANNOUJH -- MIDDLE EASTERN EGGPLANT SPREAD
This is a delicious and very simple recipe if prepared in a food processor or blender. A wonderful spread to serve with pita bread, kalamata olives, feta, and tomatoes. This recipe calls for Japanese eggplant, which can be used whole without peeling or draining...more vitamins, less hassle! If you can only find "regular" eggplant (the large, very dark purple, almost black kind), I recommend you prepare it first by lightly salting and draining it for 30 minutes or so to remove bitterness prior to roasting. You may also wish to remove the skin as a matter of personal preference.
