This smoky eggplant dip \u2014 better known as baba ganoush \u2014 is creamy, savory, and impossibly delicious. Made with tahini, garlic, fresh parsley, and a splash of citrus, it\u2019s a Middle Eastern classic you\u2019ll want to make on repeat. Serve it up with crunchy veggies, warm pita bread, or my favorite: oven-baked tortilla chips with za\u2019atar<\/a> for a flavorful, healthy snack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Baba Ganoush?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Baba ganoush is a simple and flavourful Mediterranean eggplant dip<\/strong> made with a handful of essential elements: tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and salt. You\u2019ll find several variations of this popular Lebanese dip; some made with spices (like chili powder or ground cumin) or even fresh herbs such as parsley. It\u2019s made by roasting or grilling eggplants (also known as aubergines) until soft, scooping out the insides, and mashing it with the tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and salt. It has a creamy texture and deliciously smoky flavor and is a great alternative to classic hummus.<\/p>\n\n\n
