Vegan Eggplant with Tahini image

This is one of my favorite dishes I make at least once a week. I ate a similar version at a friend's house who recreated it after eating it at a Syrian family's house and then made my own version at home. I usually roast the eggplant the day before or in the morning and then I can make the dish quickly when it's time to eat. I usually serve it with bread. It keeps well in the fridge as well for a yummy lunch the next day.

This recipe was a bit bland for me. I think I would add more spices next time.

This dish was a bit too oily for my taste, but the flavors were still good. I think I would try it again with less oil.
