Baba Ghanoush Sandwich Recipe
This sandwich is finger-licking good! The main character inside is the baba ghanoush. That’s a typical Arabic dish that consists of cooked aubergines (eggplant) mixed with tahini and some seasonings. It’s going to knock your socks off!
I grilled my aubergines (eggplant) and then I blended them with tahini, olive oil, garlic, parsley, oregano, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and some water. That’s how you get that amazing meze – very nutritious and so delicious. It’s pretty similar to hummus and the only difference is that instead of chickpeas you are using aubergines. The method is the same.
Eggplant has great health benefits, as it is high in minerals and dietary fibers. The Birds Eye Chili is going to add heat to this dish. Not only does it contain great heat but it will help increase your metabolism and digestive system.
I used the baba ghanoush as a spread in my amazing vegan sandwiches with carrots, cucumbers, sun-dried tomatoes, and Sonoran Spice Bird’s Eye Chili Flakes. Bird’s Eye Chili has a medium heat to it, adding the right amount of heat to this dish.
Try this tasty sandwich for yourself, this recipe is for one sandwich, you might wanna make a double batch!
