What is Baba ganoush?

Baba ganoush — When aubergine is roasted, peeled, puréed and mixed with lemon juice, garlic, tahini (sesame paste) and salt, it's transformed into the heavenly baba ganoush (or moutabal as it's known in Lebanon) - a smooth, smoky-flavoured spread or dip that's a favourite Middle Eastern meze dish.
