Author and cook Maria Benadis, founder of Greekalicious, shares a recipe for eggplant dip.Eggplant is the star to the national dish of Greece moussaka. (Interestingly enough, eggplant is considered a fruit.)
The most amazing eggplants I have cooked are those of Santorini, which are white, sweet, juicy and quite delicious – this eggplant is adored by chefs as it doesn't absorb much oil. Eggplant is very nutritious and contains fibre, folate, potassium, vitamin C, vitamin K, magnesium, and other minerals.
I serve this dip with baked pita chips.
