Hey guys! How are you all doing?!
I just made this Baba Gaboush dip about an hour ago, so it´s fresh. I had 3 eggplants and one I have reserved on th side so I could make this as a dip or spread. We love this at home and whenever I can, I make this from time to time. I learned to make this from a lebanese couple who had a bakery in Lagos, Nigeria. We live there as expats late 80s and she lady owner gave me a recipe which is actually very easy to make.
The main ingredient is an eggplant. With a fork, I pressed it on the skin of the eggplant to make strips all over this vegetable , then put it in the microwave and cooked for about 5 minutes until soft. Then poured cold water to remove the stripped skin. Removed the trunk and placed in a blender , added 2 tablespoons Tahini or sesame paste, juice of 1/2 lemon, salt and pepper and cumin powder. If you are making this, taste the spices if ok according to your preference. Arrange on a plate and pour a bit of olive oil on top . Now it is ready!

This is similar to a Muttabal in Arabia an eggplant dip sauce and was able to make some here in my place but the bread was not the usual kubhos it was a common loaf bread from Gardenia but it tastes so yummy👍
I can imagine that it tasted good.... I also like to eat this with the flat bread, I think it tastes more yummy when eaten with the arabian bread
yes it is but unfotunately we don't have available flat arabic bread in here
It is easy to make, the way the nomads do it very flat.... flour and water only.
That's a perfect lunch with Arabian bread.
Indeed, that is the right pasir of bread... I always have the turkish flat bread
Tita @Mers I saved this so I could make one tomorrow. My first time to know that eggplant can be a dip. I'm excited!!!
Oh yes, try it, top it with fresh parsley and if you arenot vegan, you can also top this with stir-fried ground beef.
I will try to do your recipe.

This is different for me, im not aware that it can be used as dip..try this one ate 👍
This is interesting to try. If no oven can the eggplant be grilled?
