How Maurice does it

oven-roastblend
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Prick the aubergines with a fork and roast them whole for about 45 minutes, until soft and collapsed.

  2. 2

    While the aubergines roast, finely chop the garlic and set aside. Slice the prosciutto into strips.

  3. 3

    Remove the aubergines from the oven and let them cool slightly. Cut them in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into a measuring cup or bowl.

  4. 4

    Add the lemon juice, olive oil, chopped garlic, and fresh thyme to the aubergine flesh.

  5. 5

    Spoon in the Greek yogurt and blend with an immersion blender until smooth.

  6. 6

    Add the tahini, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Blend again until fully incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    Transfer the dip to a serving dish. Top with dollops of extra yogurt (optional), arrange the prosciutto slices, and scatter over the sliced red chili.

  8. 8

    Finish with a grind of black pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with toasted bread for dipping.
