Instructions

  1. 1

    Roast the Eggplant

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the eggplant in half lengthwise and place it on a baking sheet, cut side down. Roast in the oven for about 30-40 minutes, or until the skin is charred and the flesh is soft.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Dip

    Once the eggplant is cool enough to handle, scoop the flesh into a food processor. Add tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and olive oil to the eggplant. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Adjust Seasoning

    Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning as needed. You can add more lemon juice or salt to suit your preference.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the Baba Ghanouj to a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle paprika on top, and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve with vegetable sticks or gluten-free crackers.
