Baba ghanoush (UK: , US: ; Arabic: بابا غنوج‎, romanized: bābā ġannūj), also spelled baba ganoush or baba ghanouj, is a Levantine appetizer of Lebanese origin consisting of mashed cooked eggplant, olive oil, lemon juice, and various seasonings. It may be served with onions, tomatoes, or other vegetables. The eggplant is traditionally baked or broiled over an open flame before peeling, so that the pulp is soft and has a smoky taste. It is a typical meze ('starter') of the regional cuisine, often served as a side to a main meal and as a dip for pita bread.Traditionally, mutabbal (متبل lit. 'spiced') is sometimes said to be a spicier version of baba ghanoush. It consists of mashed cooked aubergines and tahini mixed with salt, pepper, garlic, olive oil, and added anar seeds.
