Lemon Eggplant Hummus Recipes

Steps:

• Turn on the food processor fitted with the steel blade and drop the garlic down the feed tube; process until it's minced. Add the rest of the ingredients to the food processor and process until the hummus is coarsely pureed. Taste, for seasoning, and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the eggplant rounds and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover and cook until brown on the bottoms, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and, working quickly, flip each eggplant round and top with a dollop of hummus and a cherry tomato quarter, rounded-side down. Cover and cook until heated through and the bottoms are golden brown, about 7 minutes.
• Transfer to a platter using a spatula. Sprinkle with the parsley and lemon zest and serve.

Steps:

• Combine chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice, tahini, cumin, and salt in a blender and blend until smooth.
• Slice eggplants into four 1-inch (2 ½ cm) slices. Sprinkle eggplant slices with salt and let sit for 20-30 minutes, then pat dry.
• In a small bowl, stir together oil, paprika, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
• Brush each side of the eggplant slices with the oil and spice mixture.
• Heat a pan or grill on medium-high heat and cook each eggplant slice for 3-4 minutes per side.
• Build your burger with the hummus sandwiched between two eggplant slices.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Place the eggplant slices on the prepared baking sheet, and brush them generously with olive oil. Place garlic slices on top of the eggplant.
• Bake the eggplant in the preheated oven until soft and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Process garlic in a food processor until minced. Add the chickpeas, lemon juice, water, tahini, cumin, salt and pepper; cover and process until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl. Serve with pita wedges and vegetables.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 400°F.
• Prick the eggplant with a fork and place on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for about 40 minutes or until it collapses on itself. Slice it open to cool.
• If desired, remove the skin of the eggplant with your hands before adding the flesh to the blender. I like the skin so just drop the whole eggplant in the blender.
• Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. If the hummus is too thick, add more water a tablespoon at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
• If you'd like, garnish with paprika, pine nuts, olive oil, and chopped basil or other herbs.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place eggplants and garlic on a baking sheet.

Place eggplant on rimmed baking sheet, cut side down; bake until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Cool slightly, then scoop flesh into processor (discard skins). Add garbanzo beans, remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, tahini, and garlic; puree until mixture is almost smooth. Transfer to bowl; stir in parsley. Season hummus to taste with salt and pepper.
