Baba Ghanoush (Eggplant Dip) image

Baba Ghanoush is such a good way to get your vegetables in. Plus, it's fun to hear the 4yo trying to say it. I didn't see any other recipes quite like this one.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large eggplants (1 1/4 lbs)
2 tablespoons tahini (sesame paste)
4 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed with salt
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (or more to taste)
4 tablespoons cold water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup onion, diced

Steps:

  • Pierce the eggplants in several places with a toothpick. Wrap the whole eggplant in aluminum foil, and set it over a gas grill to cook on all sides until it collapses and begins to release a great deal of steam.
  • Place the eggplant in a basin of cold water; peel while it's still hot and allow it to drain in a colander until cool.
  • Squeeze pulp to remove any bitter juices. Mash the eggplant to a puree.
  • In a food processor, mix the tahini with the garlic, onion, tomato, and lemon juice until the mixture thickens and reduces in size. Thin with water. With the machine running, add the eggplant and the salt, pepper, and olive oil.
  • Spread out in a shallow dish, and garnish with pepper, parsley, and tomatoes.

I've made baba ghanoush many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The eggplant was perfectly roasted and the tahini sauce was divine.
