Mediterranean Pizza

Baba Ganoush

Ingredients

  • One large eggplant (two medium would probably be fine)
  • 2-4 cloves of garlic
  • 4 tbsp lemon juice
  • optional: I bet lemon rind if you have fresh would go great.
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tbsp greek yoghurt (I used sour cream, was great)
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cumin (or 1/2 curry powder and 1/2 cayenne)
  • optional: pinch of smoked paprika to serve with a bit of oil.

Method

  • Cut eggplant in half, oil, place face down for 30-35 minutes at 475 (245c)
  • place all other ingredients in food processor, run to get a smooth runny sauce
  • scoop out eggplant meat, push through small strainer to remove moisture
  • pace eggplant in foot processor, run to combine.
Before running food processor Baba Ganoush after food processor

Pizza

Ingredients

  • Whatever you have lying around really

I used:

  • Baba Ganoush as sauce
  • Brie sliced
  • Feta sprinkled
  • Potatoes sliced, boiled, lightly fried (note: would probably skip next time)
  • large bunch of basil, rolled and sliced into strips
  • handful of fresh mint
  • Small tomatoes sliced
  • to drizzle Reduced balsamic

Method

  • Place Baba Ganoush on bread base (I used old Lavish)
  • Place ingredients on top, save some mint and basil for giving color at the end
  • Bake around 450f for 10-25 minutes, depending on thickness of crust used.
