MIDDLE EASTERN WARM ZUCCHINI DIP



Middle Eastern Warm Zucchini Dip image

This recipe is a very flavorful recipe that is healthy and easy. When making traditional stuffed zucchini, the inside of the zucchini is set aside for later use and this is how its used. I sometimes just buy zucchini just to make this dish. You need the long green zucchini for this recipe. This recipe is usually a side dish at our table.* You may want to cut down on the amount of Maggi, or add it in increments until the desired amount of saltiness is achieved*

MIDDLE EASTERN DIP

This is traditionally called hummus, and I can't get enough of it. You can serve this with pita bread triangles (I use Recipe #362708), but I actually like to use raw celery and carrot sticks.

  • Preheat the oven (or a toaster oven) to 450 F. Lightly oil the zucchini and eggplant and place them, whole, directly on a baking sheet. Bake 30-45 minutes until the skins begin to blacken and buckle and the insides feel soft. Set them aside to cool.
  • While the zucchini and eggplant are cooking, heat the olive oil in a small pan and add the mashed or finely diced garlic. Lightly sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds, stirring frequently. When it is just beginning to turn golden, add the garlic to the tahini, along with the lemon juice. Blend those ingredients and set them aside.
  • Once the zucchini and eggplant are cool enough to handle, scoop out their insides and discard the skins. Chop the (squishy) insides in a wooden bowl with a rounded chopper or use a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add the parsley and mix thoroughly.
