Ingredients

• 2 medium Eggplants
• 0.25 cup Tahini
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 large Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Puncture the eggplants with a fork in several places. This prevents them from bursting during baking.

Step 3

Place the eggplants on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 30 minutes or until the skin is charred and the eggplants have collapsed.

Step 4

Allow the eggplants to cool slightly after roasting, then slice them open and scoop out the soft flesh into a large mixing bowl. Discard the skins.

Step 5

Add the tahini, lemon juice, minced or pressed garlic, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and ground cumin to the eggplant flesh.

Step 6

Using a blender or food processor, blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If you like your babaganoush chunkier, you can mix by hand and leave some texture.

Step 7

Taste the babaganoush and adjust the seasoning if necessary by adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.

Step 8

Transfer the babaganoush into a serving dish and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.

Step 9

Serve immediately or refrigerate for an hour to let the flavors meld before enjoying. This Keto Babaganoush pairs well with vegetable sticks or low-carb crackers.
