Aubergine and Red Pepper Dip

16 Jan

2 medium sized eggplants
I large red pepper
1 red onion
1/2 punnet of rosa tomatoes (optional)
2 cloves garlic
1 Dessert spoon lemon juice
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Salt and pepper to taste
1 Tablespoon of of olive oil (I use the Woolworths olive oil spray)
Roast aubergine (eggplant), red pepper, onion, rosa tomatoes and garlic together at 200 c for about 20 to 25 min until soft and starting to caramelize.  
Pop into a food processor (with the blade attachment) and add salt, pepper, dessert spoon of fresh lemon juice, pinch cayenne pepper and whiz a few times. (I didn’t make it too smooth, kept a rough texture)
Delicious with raw veggies or quartered pita bread. Perfect as a starter or served with a barbecue in summer.
