The smoky BBQ sauce and spices create a perfect harmony, while grilling provides a crispy exterior to the kebabs. This dish is an ideal choice for barbecue parties or a light summer dinner. If you want to make it even more special, try sprinkling it with fresh lemon juice or a pinch of chili.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Halve the eggplants and grill or bake them for 15-20 minutes, or until completely softened. Let them cool, then scoop out the flesh.

    2

    Finely chop the red onion and garlic. Sauté them in a little olive oil in a pan for 3-4 minutes, until translucent.

    3

    In a bowl, combine the cooked eggplant flesh, chickpeas, sautéed onion and garlic, BBQ sauce, smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and pepper.

    4

    Mash the mixture with a fork or an immersion blender until you get a sticky paste.

    5

    Stir in the chopped parsley and breadcrumbs. Shape the mixture into small cylinders or balls.

    6

    Thread the kebabs onto grill skewers and brush with a little olive oil.

    7

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and place the kebabs on it. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, until lightly charred and crispy.

    8

    Remove from the grill and serve with fresh vegetables, pita bread, or vegan yogurt sauce.
