Baba Ghanoush image

I started eating this stuff after a great pita sandwich at the Pita Pit. I make mine with more garlic (cuz I don't have to suit everyone's taste, like a restaurant!). NOTE: the garbanzo's may offend a baba purist, but make for a stiffer spread and a different taste - try both ways and enjoy!

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large eggplant, roasted
1 (14 ounce) can garbanzo beans, rinsed (optional)
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
2 -3 tablespoons lemon juice (1 medium lemon)
3 tablespoons tahini
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons dried parsley

Steps:

  • Prick the skin of the eggplant and roast it at 400 degrees for 1 hour, or until the eggplant collapses.
  • Scoop the flesh out (everything but the skin), and add it to the food processor.
  • Add the other ingredients, and pulse until smooth.
  • Serve in a pita, or as a dip.
  • Note: this can be made without the garbanzos, but I like the flavor and texture they add.
  • You can use roasted garlic for a smoother taste - just wrap a head of garlic in aluminum foil and put it in with the eggplant!

This recipe is amazing! The baba ghanoush is so creamy and flavorful, and the roasted eggplant adds a smoky depth of flavor. I love serving this with pita bread and fresh vegetables.

I've made baba ghanoush a few times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The eggplant was perfectly roasted and the tahini sauce was so creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again!

I'm not a huge fan of eggplant, but I tried this recipe and was pleasantly surprised. The eggplant is roasted until it's soft and smoky, and the tahini sauce is rich and creamy. I served this with pita bread and it was a hit!
