Ingredients

* 1 kg of eggplants: not to large, with uniform coloring and
texture
* 1 large onion
* salt, pepper
* 100ml, sunflower oil
* patience


Preparation

* use a fork to pierce the eggplants to avoid eggplant explosion
* grill the eggplants until they are soft and liquid is emerging
when checking the crust (10 - 15 mins)
* leave them to cool down until they can be handled
* peal the crust. This should be easy if they are cooked and cold
enough but requires some patience
* put the eggplants on a plate and wait 10 minutes to let out all
liquid
* cut the onion in very small pieces
* mix the eggplants with onions and the sunflower oil until it's a
paste
* cool down and serve on sliced bread and with tomatos salad
