Baba Ghanoush with flat bread 🍆

Baba Ghanoush

Ingredients
– 2 large eggplants (aubergines)
– 150g (5.3 oz) hulled tahini
– 1 lemon, juiced
– 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
– pinch of salt
– 30ml (2 tbsp) extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
– toasted pine nuts, for garnish (optional)
– fresh parsley, for garnish

Method
1. Pierce the eggplants (aubergines) with a fork about six times to allow steam to escape during cooking.
2. Place the eggplants directly over hot coals (or under a grill) and cook for 12–15 minutes, turning frequently until the skins are blackened and charred.
3. Transfer the cooked eggplants to a bowl, cover with a lid or cling film, and let them steam for 15 minutes. This will make the skins easier to remove.
4. Peel away the burnt skin from the eggplants and place them on a paper towel to drain any excess liquid.
5. On a cutting board, mash the eggplants with the minced garlic using the side of a knife or a bench scraper until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
6. Transfer the mashed eggplants to a bowl. Add the tahini, a pinch of salt, the olive oil, and about a quarter of the lemon juice. Mix everything thoroughly.
7. Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or lemon juice as desired.
8. Serve the baba ghanoush on a plate, drizzled with extra olive oil. Garnish with toasted pine nuts and chopped parsley if desired. Serve with flatbread or pita on the side.

  1. That’s called Metabbal
    Baba Ganoosh should be with grilled tomato green paper and baprika. Without yogurt

  2. Fun fact many who doest know this dish is actually called mtabbal not baba ghanoush. Baba is made without tahina and with pomme granade syrup n stuff. But looks amazing anyway

  3. Next time try making it with just some home made mayo, and some finely chopped onion.

  4. Ooo missing something in Turkey we call it "tahin" . You should try it with it

  5. India's one the famous dish call baingan ka bharta is a bit similar to this dish ! So you can try that too ! And yes it is also being eaten with a flat bread made of a millet flour and the millet is called bajra ! And it's one of the authentic dish from almost 2 states of India ! Try it ! 😉

  6. This called MUTAPAL
    BABA GHANOUJ a little bit different with additional ingredients ❤

  7. It’s not baba ganoush .. it’s Baba Ghanouj (the gh is pronounced as the French “R” and the word ends with a “J” not “sh”

  8. This is actually Lebanese food, baba ganoush. So let's make sandwich, sandvic, ice cream, ice kream, anyway you pretend to have found it yourself, let's do it like that.
