The Best Baba Ganoush Recipe

How to make the best homemade baba ganoush recipe ? This recipe is very easy to make, vegan, perfect as a dip or as a side dish.This deliciously easy smoky aubergine dip is perfect with warm flatbreads or pittas, or serve with other Middle Eastern dishes as part of a mezze.

Think of baba ganoush as very similar to hummus. The difference: the main ingredient in hummus is chickpeas, and in baba ganoush it’s roasted eggplant. In either recipe, that foundational ingredient is mixed with garlic, lemon, tahini and salt to make a delicious dip or foundation for toppings. That’s it!
The result is creamy, rich and smoky side dish.

Baba Ganoush Ingredients:

2 Medium-large eggplants
2 Garlic cloves,
1/3 cup (80g) Tahini
1/4 cup (60ml) Olive oil
1 tablespoons Lemon juice
Salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
For garnishing (optional):
Aleppo-peper
Olive oil

If you’re looking for the best smoky flavor, grill your eggplant (whole) over open flame until fully charred on all sides. Like I mentioned earlier, you can always roast the eggplant in the oven, if that is all that is available to you. But if you have access to a gas burner, that is the best way to get the smokiest eggplant dip!
