Servings 1 Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • +-200g eggplant / aubergine - sliced
  • 1 medium clove garlic minced
  • 1 - 2 Tbsp lemon juice - to taste
  • 1 tsp GiNiT Original
  • Optional:
  • 1 -2 Tbsp tahini - adds additional depth of flavour and nutty notes

Instructions
 

  • To Prepare:
  • Once your aubergine is sliced 1cm thick, pan roast in coconut oil. Add a sprinkling of salt, until cook until soft and deep golden brown.
  • Once the eggplant / aubergine is cooked and cooled slightly, place all ingredients into a blender or food processor and blend until a smooth, creamy texture is achieved.  Taste and adjust seasoning, if required.

Notes

Serving Suggestion:
Baba Ganoush is great as a dip or a spread on a mezze platter, in a wrap or burger.  This recipe, without the tahini, was mildly sweet with rich deep earthy notes.
Note:
Tahini is a traditional ingredient in Baba Ganoush, but it is not often a pantry item; it is however, a fantastic inclusion in this recipe. GiNiT Sage would work equally well with this recipe.
