Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 230C (450F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Halve the eggplant lengthwise. Place halves cut side down onto the baking sheet. Roast the eggplant until the interior is very tender throughout and the skin is collapsing, around 40 - 50 minutes for large eggplants. Once done, set aside and let it cool slightly. Then, flip the eggplant over and scoop out the flesh. Discard the skin.
  3. Transfer the eggplant to a food processor along with tahini, walnuts, garlic cloves, cumin, sumac and salt. Mix until well combined.
  4. Transfer the Baba Ghanoush to a serving bowl and enjoy with accompaniments of your choice.
