This baba ganoush is silky, smoky, and bright, with charred aubergine balanced by nutty tahini, sharp lemon, and a touch of garlic. A drizzle of olive oil, fresh parsley, and jewel-like pomegranate seeds make it both deeply savoury and beautifully fresh.

Tender strips of beef are seared until nicely browned, then combined with peppers, tomatoes, garlic, and smoked paprika in a flavorful skillet with a gentle smoky note. Fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon provide a bright, Mediterranean finish.
