Omgosh the roasted eggplant Baba Ganoush I made last night was insanely good. We used to have a local middle eastern man who made a dip like this. We ate it probably 2-3 times a week and dream about it…..
I was inspired by eggplants I received from a friend and from our Imperfect Foods order this week. (Grab 80$ off your first four orders)
- 2-5 eggplants split lengthwise (salted for 30 min then drizzled with olive oil) Roast on grill until done
- 1 cucumber peeled & chopped
- 1-2 tomatoes chopped ( or a million cherry tomatoes halved)
- 1/2 onion chopped
- Olive oil
- Lemon juice 1/2 lemon
- garlic 1-3 cloves
- Red wine vinegar 1-2 tsp
- Splash ACV
- Himalayan salt
- Fresh pepper
After the eggplants are grilled let cool and scoop out soft flesh. Place in a bowl with chopped veggies and seasonings. His recipe had green peppers but I always picked them out because I’m not a fan. Also tahini can be added for a creamier consistency if you like. I used a cast iron smoker box in the grill for a little wood oven flavor but it’s not necessary.
Enjoy, C
