Baba Ghanoush

Silky, smoky roasted eggplant whipped with tahini, lemon, and a touch of cooling yogurt—this is baba ghanoush at its most luxurious. Charred until tender and collapsed, the eggplant becomes almost creamy, punctuated by bright herbs and a whisper of cayenne that keeps you coming back for another spoonful.

  1. 1
    Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  2. 2
    Prick the eggplant skin several times with a knife tip. Place eggplants directly on the grill and turn frequently with tongs until the skin is charred and the flesh has collapsed, 25 to 30 minutes.
  3. 3
    Transfer eggplants to a bowl, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and let cool for about 15 minutes.
  4. 4
    When cool enough to handle, split eggplants in half and scrape the flesh into a colander placed over a bowl. Drain for 5 to 10 minutes.
  5. 5
    Transfer eggplant flesh to a mixing bowl. Add crushed garlic and salt, then mash until creamy but still slightly textured, about 5 minutes.
  6. 6
    Whisk in lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, and cayenne pepper. Stir in yogurt until well combined.
  7. 7
    Cover and refrigerate until completely chilled. Stir in mint and parsley, taste, and adjust seasonings before serving.
