Ingredients

45 minutes
4-5 servings
  1. 1 1/2 poundseggplants (about 700-750 grams)
  2. 1 clovegarlic
  3. Olive oil
  4. Salt to taste
  5. Paprika
  6. Tahini (Sesame Paste)
  7. 1/2 teaspoonanise seeds or ground anise
  8. Juice of half a lemon or a small lemon

Cooking Instructions

45 minutes
  1. 1

    First, cut the eggplants in half and make a few cuts in the flesh. Drizzle a little olive oil on top. Roast the eggplants in the oven at 350°F for 45 minutes or microwave them for about 10-12 minutes, covering the dish with plastic wrap and poking a few holes to let the steam escape. I used the microwave, and it was very quick and turned out great.

  2. 2

    Once the eggplants are roasted, scoop out the flesh with a spoon and discard the skin. Place the eggplant flesh in a food processor or blender. Add the roasted eggplant flesh, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of sweet paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of ground anise (if you have anise seeds, crush them well in a mortar), juice of half a lemon, 1 tablespoon of Tahini, a splash of olive oil, and salt.

  3. 3

    Blend everything well until all the ingredients are well mixed. Store the Baba Ganoush in a container in the refrigerator once it has cooled.

  4. 4

    Garnish the Baba Ganoush with paprika, a drizzle of olive oil, and sesame seeds on top and enjoy! It can be eaten with Middle Eastern (Moroccan) flatbread, which is delicious and the recipe is available on Cookpad. Another option is to take tortillas, cut them, and bake them until crispy.
