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.

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.
