SILKY CARROT HUMMUS



Silky Carrot Hummus image

This yummy and healthy dip/spread recipe comes from the wonderful book "Mon premier dîner végétarien" by Alice Hart. It makes for a very soft, silky hummus that has a slightly sweet flavour from the carrots.

Provided by Lalaloula

Categories     Spreads

Time 18m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large carrot, chopped
1 pinch salt
1 (175 g) can chickpeas, drained (can soak and cook your own equivalent, too)
1/2 tablespoon tahini (I used white tahini)
1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or use lemon juice)
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Cook carrot with the pinch of salt in boiling water until very tender (about 8 minutes). Drain and combine with the other ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Blend until smooth. I used a hand-held blender for this and left a few chunks of carrot intact for texture.
  • Serve with dippers of your choice.

Tips:

  • For the smoothest hummus, use a food processor or high-powered blender.
  • If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can mash the chickpeas and carrots by hand, but it will take longer and the hummus may not be as smooth.
  • To make the hummus even more flavorful, roast the carrots before adding them to the food processor.
  • If you don't have time to roast the carrots, you can use raw carrots, but they will not have as much flavor.
  • Add the spices and seasonings to taste. You can adjust the amount of cumin, paprika, and salt to your liking.
  • Serve the hummus with pita bread, crackers, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Silky carrot hummus is a delicious and healthy snack or appetizer. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it spicy, mild, or somewhere in between, this hummus is sure to please. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful snack, give silky carrot hummus a try. You won't be disappointed!
