Beetroot Hummus

Beetroot Hummus

Ingredients

400g beetroots
400g can chickpeas (not drained)
0.25 C chickpea liquid (or water if your chickpeas have no liquid)
4 cloves garlic (more or less to taste)
2 T lime or lemon juice
3 T tahini
0.25 t salt (more or less to taste)

Directions

Roast the beetroots by wrapping them in aluminium foil and putting them in the oven at 220 degrees Celcius for 45 - 60 minutes. They will be done if a knife goes through them easily. Let the beetroots cool before peeling them. Take the skin off the garlic cloves, and place them in a blender with all the other ingredients, including the beetroot. Blend until combined and smooth. You can adjust the blending time depending on how smooth you like your hummus to be. Add more salt if desired.

We love the diversity of produce we receive in our veg bag delivery. We get the staple veg as well as new and unusual vegetables and greens. Our kids learn about UK grown food and when it comes into season and we love supporting local.
