Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 medium eggplants
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup tahini
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
  • With a sharp knife, cut the eggplant into half lengthwise. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and place the eggplant halves on top with the flesh-side facing up.
  • Brush with olive oil (I used about one tablespoon in total).
  • Bake them for 40 minutes. Cover them with aluminium foil for the last 10-15 minutes, so they don't become too brown.
  • Let the eggplants cool down for about 10 minutes, so they are easier to handle. In the meanwhile place the remaining ingredients into a food processor.
  • Scrape out the flesh of the eggplant with a spoon and add it to the tahini mixture. Process until smooth.
  • Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley, some more olive oil, and red pepper flakes. Serve with warm pita bread. Enjoy!

BABGANOUSH-HUMMUS PASTA



Babganoush-Hummus Pasta image

A few months ago I started cooking with whole wheat pasta because I was working on family-friendly recipes for a charity cookbook. Whole wheat pastas are loaded with protein and fiber so it's a really easy way to help kids get more of both. I tried some whole wheat spaghetti for John and me one night. The preparation was simple -- just 10 shallots and cheese dressed it -- but from the first nutty-delicious bite I was hooked! The earthy, nutty flavor of chickpeas is a natural complement as well. Here I let a couple of dip-n-spread favorites inspire a hearty vegetarian sauce.

  • Don't skip the tahini: Tahini is a key ingredient in both hummus and baba ganoush. It adds a creamy texture and a nutty flavor. If you don't have tahini on hand, you can substitute another nut or seed butter, such as almond butter or sunflower seed butter.
  • Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender is the easiest way to make hummus and baba ganoush. It will help you to get a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the hummus and baba ganoush before serving and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more lemon juice, salt, or garlic.
