About Moutabbal

Moutabbal is a creamy and flavorful Middle Eastern dip made primarily from roasted eggplant, tahini (sesame paste), fresh lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. It originates from Levantine cuisine and is a staple in many Mediterranean and Arabic meals, often enjoyed as an appetizer or side dish with pita bread or fresh vegetables. Rich in nutrients, eggplant provides fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins such as B6 and K, while tahini adds healthy fats and protein. Olive oil enhances its heart-healthy mono-unsaturated fat content, and garlic offers immune-boosting properties. Moutabbal is generally low in calories, but its fat content can increase when extra olive oil is added. Its wholesome ingredients make it a delicious and nutritious choice, though moderation is key for those monitoring calorie or fat intake.
