    Salt the eggplant slices and let them sit for 20 minutes to draw out moisture. Pat dry.

    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry eggplant slices until golden brown and soft, about 4-5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Mix diced cucumber and tomato to make a simple Israeli salad.

  4. 4

    Warm the pita breads lightly. Cut open the top to form a pocket.

    Spread hummus inside each pita. Stuff with fried eggplant, hard-boiled egg slices, and salad.

  6. 6

    Drizzle generously with tahini sauce and serve immediately.
