I find it hard to imagine a time before this side dish became a part of my life. It is so easy to make and absolutely delicious. There is not a single downside to it. Often, the simplest things end up being the best.
The eggplant is traditionally grilled over an open flame, then cut open and covered in a delicious, lemony, garlicky tahini dressing. Actually, I believe the eggplant’s flavor is more pronounced when it is cooked in a conventional manner.
Many people don’t have a stovetop that has an open flame. It makes such a mess that it’s not worth it. Dry-grilling the eggplant in a skillet on the stovetop yielded almost the same results. If you aren’t afraid of making a mess or have an outdoor grill, you can roast the eggplant on the fire. If you don’t have an outdoor grill, roast the eggplant over the fire.

Tahini Sauce: Useful Tips
Tahini sauce ingredients can be modified to suit any meal. You will need the following ingredients to make tahini.
- 1/2 cup grapeseed oil
- Three cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper for a delicious taste
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
- Juice one lemon (approximately two tablespoons).
- Two tablespoons of white vinegar or rice vinegar
- One tablespoon honey
- Three tablespoons of water
Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat to make the tahini. Cook the garlic, ginger and salt until fragrant. Continue to cook for one minute more. The mixture should be strained into a small bowl after it has been removed from the heat. Mix together the lemon juice, rice vinegar, honey and water in a separate bowl until well combined. Mix the mixture with the garlic mixture in a skillet. Cook for 2 minutes. Serve warm on toast, or as a side dish.
Conclusion
Tahini sauce can be used to enhance the flavor and texture of grilled eggplant dishes. You can make your own tahini sauce and modify the recipe to make it as delicious or as simple as you like. Tahini sauce can also be made easily – simply combine tahini, water, olive oil, and salt until you reach the desired consistency. Tahini sauce can be used alone or in combination with other dishes to add luxury and flavor to your meal.
