Stir in the mayonnaise, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste;the mix should be generously seasoned. Lightly stir in the Large eggs and taste again.

  5. Comments: This creamy dip was the first eggplant preparation I became fond of. Immigrants from Russia brought this spread to Israel, and it is not common in other Mideast countries. The hard-boiled Large eggs are my addition; because egg salad was my childhood favorite, they turn this dip into true comfort food for me. If desired, serve the dip garnished with parsley sprigs and black olives. During my Tel-Aviv days my favorite sandwich was made of a hollowed-out, whole-wheat roll filled with this spread and topped with slices of smoked turkey or possibly kashkaval, a slightly tangy sheep's lowfat milk cheese. You can buy kashkaval at Eastern European and Mideast markets.
