How to Make Baba Ghannouji Hummus
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Slice one large eggplant (approximately 1 pound) into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and arrange on a parchment-lined jelly roll pan. Roast for 45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and slightly charred.
- While the eggplant roasts, combine the following ingredients in a food processor or high-powered blender: 1/2 cup sesame tahini, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin.
- Once the eggplant is cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and roughly chop the flesh. Add the eggplant to the food processor.
- Blend until completely smooth and creamy, adding 2-4 tablespoons of water as needed to reach desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve immediately with warm pita bread. Enjoy!
