Baba Ghanoush
I love this, it is so versatile!
You need:
♦ 1 medium eggplant (if you use a large one, just increase all ingredients a little)
♦ 2 tbsp tahini
♦ grated/squeezed garlic, about a tbsp.
♦ olive oil, about 3/4 tbsp
♦ salt & pepper
♦ half a tsp of chilli powder – or more if you like it spicy
♦ coriander, fresh, about 1/4 to 1/2 a cup
♦ juice of half a lemon
♦ optional: a few drops of liquid smoke
You do:
– heat oven to 180-200C,
– prick holes in eggplant
– pop eggplant in oven and roast till it is wrinkly and a bit collapsed
– let cool down a little, then slice lengthwise
– scoop out flesh and place in food processor (or you can mash all by hand)
– add all ingredients and run machine. Taste and tweak as you like 🙂
If you do the process by hand, then chop up coriander as fine as you can.
Serve with biccies, on toast, with salad, etc etc.
