Time 33m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (1 1/2-pound) eggplant or 3 Japanese eggplants, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
Olive oil, for drizzling, plus 1/3 cup
Kosher salt, for seasoning, plus 1/2 teaspoon
Freshly ground black pepper, for seasoning, plus 1/4 teaspoon
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1/3 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from about 1 lemon)
1 clove garlic
1 hothouse cucumber, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and place an oven rack in the middle.
  • Place the eggplant on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine the cooled eggplant, beans, parsley, lemon juice, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pulse until the mixture is coarsely chopped. With the machine running, gradually add 1/3 cup of olive oil until the mixture is creamy. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Place the hummus in a dipping bowl and serve with the cucumber slices. Alternatively, spoon the hummus over the cucumber slices and arrange on a serving platter.

This hummus is a great way to use up leftover eggplant. It's also a good source of protein and fiber.

I'm not a big fan of eggplant, but I really enjoyed this hummus. TheRoasted eggplant flavor is subtle, and it pairs well with the other ingredients.

This hummus is a little too smoky for my taste, but it's still good. I think I'll try roasting the eggplant for a shorter amount of time next time.

This hummus is amazing! It's so creamy and flavorful, and the roasted eggplant adds a delicious smoky flavor. I served it with pita chips and vegetables, and it was a hit with my family and friends.
