Babaganoush Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Grill the Eggplant

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Prick the eggplants with a fork and place them on the grill. Grill for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is charred and the insides are soft.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Babaganoush

    Once the eggplants are cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh and place it in a food processor. Add the olive oil, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, salt, black pepper, and jalapeno (if using). Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Transfer the babaganoush to a serving bowl. Drizzle with a bit more olive oil and sprinkle chopped cilantro on top if desired. Serve with warm pita bread.
