Techniques
- 3 whole small eggplants
- tomatoes
- whole garlic cloves
- red onion
Cut the red onion into rounds a little under half an inch thick.
Grill-roast the eggplants, tomatoes, whole garlic cloves and onion until browned and completely soft; the eggplant skin should be completely charred.
- cilantro
- chipotle chilies from a can
Chop the red onion, tomatoes and cilantro into a bowl.
- 2 tbsp chipotle canning liquid
Roughly chop the roasted garlic and put it in the blender with a few canned chipotle chilies and a couple of tablespoons of their canning liquid.
Cut the tops off the eggplants, split them, scrape the soft flesh from the charred skin into the blender, and blend smooth.
- salt
- lime juice
Scrape the puree into the bowl, season with salt and a little lime juice, and taste.
