    Baba Ghanoush with Soy & Linseed Toast

    August 21, 2014

     

    Baba Ghanoush is one of my friend's favourite word(s) and I kinda know why... This is a super quick and easy dip to prepare, and similar to my hummous recipe, except substituting eggplant/aubergine for chickpeas. It takes 15-20 mins, but most of that is waiting for the eggplant to bake. Great in a pitta with crunchy veg for kids' packed lunches and you may be able to fool them that it is hummous as it looks pretty similar. I spread mine on Vogel's soy & linseed bread, which is one of the lowest GI breads out there. On sale at South Stream Seafoods.

    What you need:

     

    1 large aubergine/eggplant

    Drizzle of olive oil

    Salt & pepper

    1 dessertspoon of unsweetened yoghurt

    Juice of half a lemon

    1/3 teaspoon of ground cumin

    Half a garlic clove minced

    1 tablespoon of fresh chopped coriander

    Fresh pomegranate seeds to garnish

     

    Serve with toasted breads and raw vegetables.

     

    Method:

     

    Preheat the oven to 200C.

     

    Cut your aubergine lengthwise into quarters, removing the top. Lay it on a  baking tray and drizzle it with olive oil, salt and pepper.

     

    Bake it until the flesh turns gooey and can be easily scooped out. Should take 15-20 minutes.

     

    Scoop out the flesh and place it in blender with the lemon juice, yoghurt , cumin and garlic. Blend a little, but not too much. Allow some texture to remain. 

     

    Taste then season with salt and pepper.

     

    Place in a serving bowl and garnish with fresh chopped coriander and pomegranate seeds.

     

    Serve with warm toast and a selection of raw vegetables to dip into it.
