ZAHLUK (TUNESIAN AND MOROCCAN EGGPLANT PUREE (SPREAD))



Zahluk (Tunesian and Moroccan Eggplant Puree (Spread)) image

This is a recipe that we've tried as part of our African cooking evening. Serve it as an appetizer or snack with flat bread. Recipe source is an African cook book which labels this dish as Tunesian. This recipe uses less oil than another Zahluk recipe I've seen in a Moroccon cook book.
