Garlic Infused Baba Ganoush
INGREDIENTS
INSTRUCTIONS
-
- Roast the whole eggplant on a grill or fire until the skin is charred and the juices start to ooze out or bake it in an oven at 425F for 45 minutes.
- Set roasted eggplant aside to cool for a few minutes.
- Fry the garlic cloves in olive oil over low heat until soft and golden. This also infuses the Olive oil with amazing garlic flavor.
- Once the garlic is fried, set aside 2 tablespoons of the Olive oil for garnishing at the end.
- Peel the roasted eggplant and chop it into small chunks.
- Add the eggplant, tahini, fried garlic, lemon juice, cayenne powder, cumin powder, and salt to a blender and blend. Slowly add the Olive oil until it emulsifies with the eggplant mixture.
- Adjust the salt, lemon juice, and spiciness if required.
- Baba Ganoush is ready to be served.
- Garnish with olive oil, za'atar, and parsley/cilantro.
