Baba ghanoush is a popular Middle Eastern dip, but here we have a stand-out version from Mount Sinai using a gorgeous medley of fresh mountain herbs. The aubergines are roasted directly on the embers, giving the dip a distinct smoky flavour. Home cooks can recreate this by roasting the aubergine in a hot oven. Pair this dish with your favourite toasted flatbread.
