Eggplant Jam
3 md Eggplants (3 lb total)
Salt
7 tb Oil olive
3 Garlic cloves; minced
2 ts Paprika sweet
1 1/2 ts Pepper Cayenne or
1/8 ts Harissa
Pepper; freshly ground
3 -to 4 tb Lemon juice fresh
1 tb Parsley; chopped
3 Lemon wedges or
3 Tomato wedges
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Cut the stems off the eggplants. Using a vegetable peeler or a sharp knife peel the skin in 1/2 inch wide strips vertically down each eggplant so you get a striped effect. Slice each eggplant horizontally into 1/2 inch slices. Place in a colander and salt each slice. Let stand 30 minutes then rinse well and pat dry with paper towels.
Brush a baking sheet with 3 tablespoons of the oil. Lightly brush the eggplant slices with 2 tablespoons oil and place in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes turning occasionally until the slices are light golden brown on both sides.
Transfer the eggplant to a bowl and using a fork or potato masher mash with the garlic paprika cumin water and cayenne. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet. Add the mashed eggplant and fry very slowly turned occasionally for about 20 minutes or until the moisture evaporates. Stir in the lemon juice and cook 1 minute longer. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.
Place the eggplant on a platter and garnish with parsley and lemon or tomato wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature. This eggplant spread has a jam like consistency. It is made all over North Africa but this version with garlic cumin and lemon juice is one of the most flavorful. Serve it with warm country-style bread or pita.
