Beetroot Hummus

Ingredients

Hummus

400g tin chickpeas, drained and rinsed

300g pack cooked beetroot

1 garlic clove

1 tbsp tahini

50ml olive oil

lemon juice


Toppings (optional, use whatever you like!)

1 tbsp toasted hazelnuts, roughly chopped

1 tbsp pumpkin seeds, roughly chopped

1 tsp nigella seeds

1/2 tsp sumac

pinch chilli flakes

Method

  1. Set aside 1 tbsp of chickpeas. Then blend everything else - other than the toppings - in a food processor until smooth, with a pinch of salt. Add a little more salt or lemon if it needs it.
  2. Chill the hummus until you want to serve it, then top it with a drizzle of olive oil, the remaining chickpeas, and your toppings!
  3. Serve with whatever you like - we recommend carrot or cucumber sticks, warm toasted bread (especially Turkish or pita bread), or falafel!
