Ingredients
- 2 medium eggplants
- 3 tablespoons Tahini
- 2 cloves garlic , pressed
- 1 lemon , juiced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- paprika
- mint, parsley or cilantro
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Use a sharp knife to poke a few holes in the skin of the eggplant so the skin doesn't burst while roasting. Place the eggplants on a baking sheet lined with foil and roast for 30 minutes or more, turning once, until the skin is blistered and the inside is very soft. Remove from the heat.
- When the eggplant is cool enough to handle, cut the eggplant in half and peel away the skin. Use a spoon to gently remove the seeds, and discard.
- Add the eggplant to a blender jar with the tahini, garlic, lemon juice, and kosher salt. Process until smooth. Add more lemon juice and salt to taste. Spoon the baba ganoush mixture into a bowl, swirl with the back of a spoon. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with fresh minced mint, parsley or cilantro and a few shakes of paprika. Also good garnished with pomegranate seeds. Serve with pita bread, lavash bread, or sliced veggies.
