- Give me Pita bread with Baba Ganoush and/or Hummus and I am all set for dinner. I do not need anything else. These are the two most amazing dips middle east has ever given us. These are also so simple to make. So here is my recipe for Baba Ganoush
Baba Ganoush (Roasted Eggplant Dip)
 |
| Baba Ganoush |
- 1 medium sized American eggplant
- 1/4 cup tahini or roasted sesame seeds
- 3 large garlic clove
- 1/4 cup kalamata olives
- Few pickled jalapenos
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Cut the eggplant lengthwise and poke some holes in it and roast on flame on the stove turning occasionally for 5-7 minutes. Cut it into large pieces and roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes at 400 degrees. Roast garlic for 10 minutes on the same pan
Let it cool a bit and scrape the flesh out of the eggplant and grind it to a paste with all the ingredients. Enjoy with warm pita bread
Here are some recipes for Hummus. Enjoy!!!
