Recipe - Baba Ganoush

1 One half pound Eggplant
3 tablespoon Lemon juice
1 teaspoon Salt
2 teaspoon Minced fresh garlic
3 tablespoon Sesame tahini
(optional: substitute
yogurt or sour cream)
One fourth cup Chopped parsley
One half cup Toasted pine nuts
2 tablespoon Olive oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prick eggplant all over with a fork. Bake
whole until tender (about 30 minutes). Remove from oven, halve and scoop
out the flesh. Blend in a food processor with the lemon juice until
smooth. Mash the salt and garlic together and combine with the eggplant,
along with the tahini. Cool and stir in the parsley and pine nuts. Before
serving, drizzle with the olive oil. Serve as a dip with tortilla chips or
triangles of flat (pita) bread.
