Roast the Eggplant
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pierce the eggplants with a fork and place them on a baking sheet. Roast for 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is charred and the flesh is soft.

Prepare the Baba Ghanoush
Once the eggplants are cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh into a food processor. Add tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, sumac, and smoked paprika. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
