Instructions
- Preheat oven on roast at 200c. In a baking sheet line the halved eggplants facing up. Drizzle the olive oil, paprika and salt and massage until the eggplant pieces are well coated. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes until soft on the inside and golden on the outside.
- Let the eggplant pieces cool and scrape with a fork to scoop the flesh or peel the cover (i found peeling the cover faster).
- Add the eggplant flesh into a bowl, together with all the baba ganoush ingredients. Process for about 3 minutes until smooth and silky. Taste to adjust salt or lemon for tanginess.
- Serve with crackers or veggie sticks.
