There are versions of Baba Ghanoush that include Tahini, and come out more like hummus:

Here's the one I saved. I have developed a taste for cumin.

Also, I don't measure anything but the olive oil, salt and cumin. I also put about 1/8 tsp cayenne as I have developed a taste for that. I use 1/2 fresh lemon. I watched a yt video tonight where an Arab-sounding woman threw everything in the food processor and let it go for 3 minutes. I'm afraid mine will be too chunky if I do that.

I garnish with smoked paprika and olive oil, never have those fresh herbs that make things look so pretty.

• 2 cups chickpeas, drained and rinsed, or soaked if using dried
• 1 small eggplant
• 3 tablespoons of tahini
• 1 ½ tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• ½ cup olive oil (too much imo, 1/4 cup max, stuff is $$$)
• 3/4 teaspoon cumin
• 1 clove of garlic, crushed
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• Sprig of parsley, finely chopped

I can't find the site I copied this from.
