Ingredients

• 2 medium Eggplant
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 quarter cup Tahini
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the eggplants and pierce them several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.

Step 3

Place the eggplants on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the skin is charred and the eggplants are tender.

Step 4

Remove the eggplants from the oven and allow them to cool until they are safe to handle.

Step 5

Once cooled, cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, discarding the skins. Place the flesh in a food processor.

Step 6

Add the olive oil, peeled garlic cloves, lemon juice, tahini, salt, ground cumin, and smoked paprika to the food processor.

Step 7

Pulse the food processor until the mixture is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon juice if desired.

Step 9

Transfer the babaganoush to a serving bowl, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, and drizzle with additional olive oil if desired.

Step 10

Serve with a selection of raw vegetables or compliant crackers for dipping.
