Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the eggplant in half lengthwise and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Roast in the oven for 45 minutes, or until the eggplant is tender and lightly caramelized.
2
Remove the eggplant from the oven and let it cool slightly. Scoop the flesh out of the eggplant and place it in a blender or food processor. Add the goat cheese, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
3
Transfer the eggplant caviar to a serving bowl and garnish with a sprinkle of paprika and a few fresh parsley leaves. Serve chilled, with crispy crackers or toasted baguette slices on the side.
