Ingredients

Method

Directions

  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, until the skin is charred and the flesh is soft.

  2. 2

    Scoop and Mash

    Remove the eggplant from the oven and let it cool slightly. Scoop out the flesh and place it in a mixing bowl. Use a fork or a potato masher to mash it until smooth.

  3. 3

    Mix Ingredients

    Add tahini, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, cumin, paprika, and pepper to the mashed eggplant. Stir until well combined.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Transfer the baba ghanoush to a serving dish, drizzle with additional olive oil, and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve with pita bread or vegetable sticks.
