  • Prick the eggplants with a fork before roasting. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from bursting.
  • Roast the eggplants until they are very soft and slightly charred. This will give them a smoky flavor and make them easy to mash.
  • Use a food processor or blender to make the hummus. This will give it a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Add tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and cumin to taste. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, smoked paprika, or cayenne pepper.
  • Serve the hummus with pita bread, crackers, or vegetables.
