Grilling the eggplant adds smokiness that pairs nicely with the heat of the red pepper flakes in this baba ganoush recipe. Serve with pita chips and raw veggies.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large eggplant
3 tablespoons tahini
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon za'atar seasoning
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper, or more to taste
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Using a fork, poke holes in the eggplant so steam will be able to release during cooking.
  • Place eggplant on the preheated grill. Grill until skins are charred, about 30 minutes, turning occasionally. Transfer to a baking pan, cover, and let steam for 10 minutes.
  • Using your hands, carefully remove the stem and the skin; the skin should be split open and peel off easily. Discard the skin and place flesh in a colander; let drain for 20 minutes. Press out any remaining moisture with paper towels.
  • Place eggplant in a food processor. Add tahini, lemon juice, za'atar, crushed red pepper, salt, paprika, and garlic. Pulse until smooth. Add olive oil and parsley; pulse until oil is incorporated. Garnish with additional crushed red pepper flakes and parsley if desired.

I love spicy food, so I was excited to try this recipe. I was not disappointed! The baba ganoush had a nice kick to it, but it wasn't too overpowering. I served it with grilled chicken and rice, and it was a delicious meal.

This baba ganoush was a hit at my last party. I made a double batch, and it was all gone by the end of the night. Everyone loved the smoky flavor and the creamy texture. I'll definitely be making this again for my next party.

This spicy baba ganoush is a healthy and delicious appetizer or snack. It's packed with fiber and antioxidants, and the tahini provides a good source of healthy fats. I like to serve it with whole-wheat pita bread or vegetable crudités.
