Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Roast the Eggplant

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prick the eggplant with a fork in several places and place it on a baking sheet. Roast for 30-40 minutes or until the skin is charred and the eggplant is soft. Allow it to cool.

2

Prepare the Dip

Once the eggplant is cool enough to handle, cut it in half and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Add tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, cumin, and paprika to the eggplant. Blend until smooth using a fork or food processor.

3

Garnish and Serve

Transfer the Baba Ghanouj to a serving bowl. Drizzle with a little extra olive oil and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve with pita bread or vegetable sticks.
