This is a very creamy dip, but I was expecting baba ganouj. If I make this again, I will omit the sesame oil, reduce the cumin add more lemon and some tahina.

A fabulously creamy variation on the more traditional baba ghanoosh recipes which use tahini, rather than yoghurt. It was the use of yoghurt that drew my attention to the recipe. I used a delicious home-made Greek yoghurt from a local greengrocer’s. A lovely blend of flavours, and a great texture. The only change I made was that I used 3 cloves of garlic (personal preference). I’ll be making this a lot more during the summer months. Thank you, Sackville Girl, for a truly wonderful recipe which I'd encourage others to try!
