Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium eggplant (3/4 to 1 lb), halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 can (15 oz) chick peas, drained, rinsed
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons sesame tahini paste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 pita rounds, toasted and cut into triangles
1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
3 stalks celery, cut into 3-inch sticks

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425°F. Line 1 cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper. Have second cookie sheet ready without parchment.
  • Rub flesh of eggplant with 1 tablespoon of the oil and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Place on parchment-lined cookie sheet. Toss chick peas with remaining oil and salt. Spread in single layer on other cookie sheet.
  • Roast eggplant and chick peas 20 minutes; toss chick peas, and roast all 10 minutes longer. Remove chick peas from oven to cool, but continue to cook eggplant 15 to 20 minutes longer or until flesh has dark charred appearance.
  • Allow eggplant to cool slightly, then scrape out flesh of eggplant and transfer to blender. Add chick peas, garlic, lemon juice, tahini and black pepper. Cover; blend until mostly smooth, and transfer to small bowl. Sprinkle with paprika. Serve with toasted pita triangles, bell pepper strips and celery.

This recipe was a disaster! The baba ganoush was watery and flavorless. I won't be making it again.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra garlic and lemon juice, and it was much better.

This baba ganoush was a bit too smoky for my taste. Next time, I'll roast the eggplant for a shorter amount of time.

I used Greek yogurt instead of tahini in this recipe. It was a great way to lighten it up.

I roasted the eggplant in my air fryer instead of the oven. It turned out great!

I'm allergic to sesame seeds, so I omitted the tahini from this recipe. It was still delicious!

This was a great way to use up some leftover eggplant. It was also a nice change from the usual hummus.
