Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 large eggplant, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large ciabatta loaf, split
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 bunch scallions, trimmed
1 clove garlic
1 cup hummus
One 4-ounce block feta cheese, sliced 1/8 inch thick
1 cup lightly packed arugula
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup fresh dill fronds
1 lemon, halved

Steps:

Preheat a grill or grill pan over high heat.
Season the eggplant with salt on both sides and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Place the ciabatta on a rimmed baking sheet and brush the split sides with some of the olive oil and season with salt. Add the scallions and coat with some of the olive oil and season with salt.
Pat the eggplant dry and drizzle both sides with some of the olive oil. Grill the eggplant until softened and charred, 5 to 6 minutes per side.
Grill the scallions until softened and charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Cut the charred scallions into 1/4 inch pieces.
Grill the ciabatta split-side down until golden and crispy, 1 to 2 minutes.
To build the sandwich, rub the garlic on the split sides of the toasted ciabatta. Spread the hummus on the split sides. Add the eggplant and scallions to the bottom half of the ciabatta. Top with the feta, arugula, basil, and dill. Squeeze lemon over the arugula and herbs, then sprinkle with black pepper. Close the sandwich, slice, and enjoy!

Tips:

Choose ripe eggplants. Look for eggplants that are deep purple and feel heavy for their size. Avoid eggplants with blemishes or wrinkles.
Roast the eggplants until they are very soft and tender. This will help to create a smooth and flavorful hummus.
Use a food processor or high-powered blender to make the hummus. This will help to create a smooth and creamy texture.
Season the hummus to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
Serve the hummus immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Eggplant hummus is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a dip, spread, or sandwich filling. It is a great way to use up leftover eggplant and is also a healthy and nutritious snack or meal. With its smoky flavor and creamy texture, eggplant hummus is a surefire hit!
