Our friend Betty makes this with cream cheese but when we need to cut down on fat I use chicken stock or a little skim evaporated milk - the cream cheese is nicer of course. I used stock in the photo I posted.

This recipe was developed and tested by Consumer Science students studying Community Nutrition at RMIT University, Victoria, Australia. For a flavour change, you can add ½ teaspoon of honey at step 3, leaving out the tahini paste and curry powder. For a high-energy alternative, add 1 teaspoon of cream and 1 tablespoon of margarine or butter before blending. We made it as posted and thought it was yum. Nutty & sweet.
