Eggplant hummus is a rich and flavorful dip native to the Middle East<\/a>. A variation of traditional hummus<\/a>, this dish combines the creamy taste of chickpeas<\/a> with the smoky, slightly sweet<\/a> and unique flavor of roasted eggplant<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This recipe is something in between traditional hummus and baba ghanoush (an appetizer of mashed eggplant mixed with tahini).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I believe that the best way to cook eggplant is to baking<\/a> it on a charcoal grill<\/a>, under high heat. Then eggplants acquire a smoky flavor, which suits them just right. But in apartment conditions there is not always such an opportunity, so we will use the oven, as in the recipe for Greek eggplant meze<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this recipe, I wanted to emphasize the sweetness and not oversaturate it with excessive sharpness, so garlic<\/a> is baked together with eggplants. If you want more garlic flavor and spice – add it finely chopped fresh, reducing the amount to 3-4 cloves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
