Moroccan Zaalouk features eggplant & tomatoes and is delightfully delicious and versatile. This is wonderful served warm but can even be served cold, as a dip, a spread or even a side dish.

- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium eggplant peeled and chopped
- 3 medium tomatoes peeled and chopped
- 2 medium Medium garlic cloves minced
- 2 tsps Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Ground cumin
- 1/4 cup Water if needed
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley chopped

Instructions
- Heat a medium-sized covered pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add olive oil, eggplant, tomatoes, garlic, paprika, and cumin.
- Bring to a gentle simmer.
- Season liberally with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Cover with a lid and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant and tomatoes become very soft, 25-30 minutes.
- If the tomatoes don’t release a lot of juice and the mixture seems too dry during cooking, add two tablespoons of water at a time up to 1/4 cup.
- Coarsely mash the eggplant and tomatoes with a potato masher and stir in the fresh parsley.
- Continue cooking for an additional 5-10 minutes or until the dip has thickened to desired consistency.
- Stir in the lemon juice and serve immediately, alongside some crusty bread for dipping.
- Enjoy!
