Baba Ghanoush
Baba Ghanoush
Ingredients
4 large Egg Plants
2 cloves Garlic
2 teaspoons Kosher Salt
1 Lemon
3 tablespoons Tahini
3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Greek Yogurt
1 pinch Cayenne Pepper
1 Leaf Mint
2 tablespoons Parsley
Instructions
1 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Prick the surface of the skin of eggplants several times with the tip of a knife.
2 Place eggplants directly on grill. Turn frequently with tongs while skin chars. Cook until eggplants have collapsed and are very soft, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow to cool, about 15 minutes.
3 When eggplants are cool enough to handle, split them in half and scrape flesh into a colander placed over a bowl. Drain 5 or 10 minutes.
4 Transfer eggplant to mixing bowl. Add crushed garlic and salt; mash until creamy but with a little texture, about 5 minutes. Whisk in lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, and cayenne pepper. Stir in yogurt.
5 Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely chilled. Stir in mint and parsley, and taste to adjust seasonings before serving.
