On that historical Tuesday last week, aka Election Day, my cousin J, my sister and I went to Avli, a cute Greek restaurant in Bayside, Queens.
My sister, who had been there before, recommended ordering the eggplant dip, which was described on the menu as “roasted eggplant dip with olive oil and garlic.” For $5, it was a pretty good deal! It also came with warm pita slices. Delicious!! (I didn’t take a photo of theirs.. but here’s my version below.)
That was my inspiration for this replica recipe. I figured, how hard could it be to make?
It looks ok. But how did it taste? Read below to find out.
