Baba Ganouy Baba Ghanoush Baba Gannoujh


A lovely dip for veggies, toasted pompadams or tortilla chips. I use it as a spread for meat and veggie sandwiches also.

Steps


First off , buy only shiny eggplants-dull ones are old.
Cut off the stem ends of eggplants and prick them like you would a spud for baking.
Place on the middle rack in oven and bake at 250 degrees for about 1 hour.
They should look quite pooped out.
Using mitts remove and cool to touch.
Cut open and scoop out-toss the peel.
Place in a food processor with all the ingredients except oil.
Whirl away-until smooth.
Taste and adjust-remember the pepper and garlic will get stronger.
Place in a serving dish and cover with oil if not serving right away.
Chill.
