Ingredients

  • 1 soft lavash bread
  • Olive oil
  • 2 small Japanese eggplants, halved
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Spicy Hummus, recipe follows

Directions

Preheat the grill to high. Brush the lavash with oil on both sides. Grill until golden brown on both sides. Brush the eggplant with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the eggplant, cut-side down, until golden brown. Turn the eggplant over and grill until just cooked through. Remove from grill and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices.

    I followed the recipe exactly. The hummus had no flavor so I added more lemon juice and more garlic. The chile oil was also bland bland bland. If I made it again, I would let the chiles sit in the oil for a longer time before straining them out. The eggplant did not taste good and I really like eggplant! horrible from the start! Would leave zero stars if possible.

    This was a wonderful alternate pizza for a neighbor that is a vegetarian. I cut off time by using store bought hummus and red chili oil. The eggplant was so good it tasted like steak. The pizza is awesome!
