Roasted Eggplant Hummus Recipes

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.
• Place the roasted eggplant slices and garlic into the work bowl of a food processor with the garbanzo beans and salt, and process until smooth.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and place an oven rack in the middle.
• Place the eggplant on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the cooled eggplant, beans, parsley, lemon juice, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pulse until the mixture is coarsely chopped. With the machine running, gradually add 1/3 cup of olive oil until the mixture is creamy. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Place the hummus in a dipping bowl and serve with the cucumber slices. Alternatively, spoon the hummus over the cucumber slices and arrange on a serving platter.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut eggplant in half lengthwise, then score flesh in crisscross pattern at 1-inch intervals, 1/2 inch deep. Rub cut sides with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil; sprinkle with salt. 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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place eggplants and garlic on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until completely tender, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool.
• Peel and chop eggplant and place in a blender. Add garlic, cilantro, lime juice, tahini, and salt. Mix until smooth. Pour into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the eggplant, bell pepper, onion and tomatoes in a bowl with the tablespoon of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
• Spread them in one layer on a baking sheet and roast for 30 to 40 minutes until the vegetables are very lightly browned and soft.
• Cool slightly and measure out 2 cups for this dish. Save any remaining roasted vegetables for another recipe, such as on a pizza for your lunch.
• In a food processor, place 2 cups cooked garbanzo beans, garlic, sesame tahini and 4 tablespoons olive oil.
• Process until the beans and garlic are almost completely ground.
• Add 2 heaping cups of the roasted vegetables to the processor along with the cumin, olives, salt and cayenne pepper. You can add more or less cayenne to suit your family's taste buds; I usually add at least another 1/4 teaspoon to ours.
• Process until almost smooth, leaving some texture and small bits of the roasted vegetables and olives showing through.
• Add more olive oil or some vegetable broth if you want to thin it out a bit.
• Taste for salt and pepper.
• Serve at room temperature.
