Method

Preparation

Roast the Eggplant

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and place them cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 30-40 minutes until the flesh is soft and the skin is charred.

Cool the Eggplant

Once roasted, remove the eggplants from the oven and let them cool for about 10-15 minutes. Then scoop out the flesh and discard the skin.

Mixing

Combine Ingredients

In a food processor, combine the roasted eggplant flesh, tahini paste, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

Add Herbs

Add the chopped parsley and mint to the mixture. Pulse a few times to combine, keeping some texture.

Finishing

Adjust Seasoning

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

Serve

Transfer the baba ganoush to a serving bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with additional parsley or mint if desired. Serve with pita bread or fresh vegetables.
