Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Roast the Eggplant

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the eggplant on a baking sheet and roast for about 30-40 minutes, until the skin is charred and the flesh is soft. Let it cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Mixture

    Once the eggplant is cool enough to handle, scoop the flesh into a food processor. Add tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, ground cumin, and paprika.

  3. 3

    Blend Until Smooth

    Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a little water to reach your desired consistency.

  4. 4

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the baba ghanoush and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding more salt, lemon juice, or tahini if desired.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the baba ghanoush to a serving bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with pita bread or veggies.
