EGGPLANT HUMMUS



Eggplant Hummus image

This healthy dip (which we call "hummus ganouj" ) is great with pita or vegetables (baby carrots, sliced bell pepper, cherry tomatoes). If you don't have a blender, finely dice the garlic and mash the chickpeas with a fork, and mix with all the other ingredients. Although the result won't be as creamy, that's how hummus was made before blenders existed.

Categories     Beans

Time 45m

Yield 2-3 cups hummus, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large eggplant
4 large garlic cloves (or more... I don't think you can add too much garlic)
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon water
3 tablespoons tahini
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Pre-heat the oven to 400°F.
  • Prick the eggplant with a fork and place on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for about 40 minutes or until it collapses on itself. Slice it open to cool.
  • If desired, remove the skin of the eggplant with your hands before adding the flesh to the blender. I like the skin so just drop the whole eggplant in the blender.
  • Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. If the hummus is too thick, add more water a tablespoon at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • If you'd like, garnish with paprika, pine nuts, olive oil, and chopped basil or other herbs.

Provided by Jimmy Bradley

Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large eggplant (about 1 1/4 pounds)
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 cup drained canned garbanzo beans (chickpeas)
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons (generous) tahini (sesame seed paste)*
1 garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
*Available at some supermarkets and at natural foods stores and Middle Eastern markets.

Steps:

Place eggplant on rimmed baking sheet, cut side down; bake until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Cool slightly, then scoop flesh into processor (discard skins). Add garbanzo beans, remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, tahini, and garlic; puree until mixture is almost smooth. Transfer to bowl; stir in parsley. Season hummus to taste with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm eggplants for the best flavor and texture.
  • Prick the eggplants with a fork before roasting to help them cook evenly.
  • Roast the eggplants until they are soft and tender, about 30 minutes.
  • Let the eggplants cool slightly before handling them.
  • Use a food processor or blender to puree the eggplants until smooth.
  • Add your desired seasonings and ingredients to the eggplant puree, such as tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and cumin.
  • Serve the eggplant hummus dip immediately with pita bread, vegetables, or crackers.

Conclusion:

Eggplant hummus is a delicious and versatile dip that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, snack, or even a main course. It is a great way to use up leftover roasted eggplants, and it is also a healthier alternative to traditional hummus. With its smoky flavor and creamy texture, eggplant hummus is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
