Baba Ganoush
This delicious dish is one of member Shelley's favorite fall recipes. I like to bake the eggplant the night before while we're eating dinner. It makes this recipe very fast.

Serves 6

Ingredients

Qty Unit Ingredient
5 lb Eggplant
1 C Lemon juice
1 C Tahini
2 Tb Garlic - minced
1/2 C Parsley, finely chopped
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/2 dz Pitas
1/2 ea Lettuce - Romaine Bibb or Iceberg, torn
1 C Feta cheese - crumbled (optional)


Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400. Pierce the skins of the eggplants several times and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 40 minutes to 1 hour, or until the outsides crinkle and the insides become very soft.

When the eggplants are cool enough to handle, scoop out the insides.

Using a food processor puree the pulp with the lemon juice, tahini, garlic, parsley, and salt until smooth. Cool to room temperature.

Line a warmed pita pocket with leaf lettuce, spoon in the baba ganoush and serve as is, or, if desired, top with a sprinkling of feta cheese.
