Serves:
Ingredients
- 2 large aubergines
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 cup fresh coriander leaves, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Pierce the aubergines all over with a fork. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the skin is charred and the flesh is soft.
-
Remove the aubergines from the oven and let cool. Once cool enough to handle, peel off the charred skin and discard. Chop the roasted aubergine flesh into small pieces.
-
In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted aubergine, minced garlic, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and chopped coriander leaves. Blend until smooth and creamy.
-
Season the dip with salt and pepper to taste. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a tablespoon of water or olive oil and blend again.
-
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with additional chopped coriander leaves. Serve with pita bread, carrot sticks, or your favorite vegetable crudites.
