Guest guest Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 Baba Ghannouj Soup - {Middle East} 1 large eggplant 1/4 cup tahini 2 garlic cloves 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 6 cups vegetable stock 1 lemon, juiced 1 egg 1/3 cup finely chopped parsley Heat the eggplant in a 350 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Cool, then holding it by the stem, carefully peel the skin away and remove the stem. Puree with the tahini, garlic, and salt. Stir into the heated stock, then bring to a simmer. Partially cover, then simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and press through a sieve, discarding solids. When ready to serve, heat the soup, then beat the egg with the lemon juice and stir through the simmering soup to form long egg strands. Simmer for another minute, then ladle into bowls and top with handfuls of fresh chopped parsley. Top with toasted strips of pita bread. Serve with warm triangles of pita bread on the side. Serve 4 to 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
