A message from one of my followers: "I was so stunned because some people are like 'it's sooo easy' and it's not. But this one took me less than 10 minutes once the eggplant was ready!" Trust me -- homemade baba ganoush looks tricky, but I promise is this recipe makes it extremely simple and you'll have a fresh Mediterranean spread in front of you in minutes. I used to make homemade hummus often and avoided making baba ganoush because I thought it'd be more difficult, but it's actually the other way around. If you're ever craving a Mediterranean dip, this is definitely a simple and quick solution for you!
