Simultaneously simple and ingenious, this dish adds yogurt to the already wonderful combination of eggplant and garlic, making it creamy and light.Combined with warm, fluffy pita, crunchy appetizers or grilled meats, this dip is a versatile companion that can turn any meal or appetizer into a vibrant Turkish feast.
Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F). Prick the eggplants and bake on a baking tray lined with foil for 55-60 minutes until soft. Chop the garlic and mix with the yogurt and salt.
Once the eggplant is baked and cooled, remove the flesh, chop it and add it to the yogurt. Stir and let the dip stand in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours if desired. Serve, drizzled with olive oil to taste.
