Ingredients

  • 1 small eggplant

Marinade

  • ½-1 nori paper (depends on how “fishy” you like it)
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp tamari sauce
  • 1 lemon (the juice)
  • ½ lemon (the zest)
  • ½ tsp ground pepper

Dill Dip

  • 1 cup soy yoghurt
  • ½ cup finely chopped dill
  • 50 g capers
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 lemon (the juice)
  • 1 lemon (the zest)
  • 1 tsp ground pepper

Instructions

  • Heat up your grill.
  • Rinse the eggplant.
  • In one bowl, combine all the ingredients for the eggplant marinade.
  • In another bowl, combine all the ingredients for the dill dip and store in the fridge until served.
  • Once the grill is ready, place the eggplant at the center of the grill, where the hottest spot is. Turn the eggplant when it turns brown/black. Don’t mind if the skin gets burned - this will only make it easier to peel off afterwards.
  • When the skin of the eggplant is looking very dark and crispy, take the eggplant off of the grill and peel the skin off.
  • Place the peeled eggplant back on the grill, somewhere between the perimeter and the center. Pour some of the marinade over it and turn. Keep doing this for about 7 minutes, making sure it doesn’t burn.
  • Fillet the eggplant and serve with the fresh and creamy dill dip.
