Baba Ganoush
Report
Charred eggplant gives this classic Baba Ganoush a smoky flavor. Great served with crispy pita chips or soft warm pita bread.

Ingredients
- 1 medium eggplant
- 2½ tablespoons tahini paste
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- pinch cumin
- 1½ teaspoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley
Instructions
CHAR THE EGGPLANT:
- Char the outside of the eggplant. This can be accomplished over a gas stove or grill or in a hot oven.
- For the gas stove or grill. Place the eggplant directly on the grates and allow the flame to blister the skin of the vegetables, turning occasionally with tongs. About 10-15 minutes, until the skin is wrinkled and charred and the flesh is a bit slumped.
- For the oven method, preheat oven to 400 degrees and roast vegetables on a rimmed baking sheet for 20-30 minutes until skin is wrinkled and charred and flesh is a bit slumped.
- Transfer the eggplant to a cutting board, slice vegetables in half, lengthwise and scoop out the flesh of the eggplant. Discard the skin.
- Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl of food processor. Pulse several times until the dip is fairly smooth.
- Season to taste with additional salt, lemon juice, additional fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil or a light sprinkle of paprika.
Notes
- Serve with toasted pita chips, thinly sliced toasted baguette or a selection of raw crudités.
