Ingredients

Scale
  • 2–3 carrots, sliced
  • 1 Tablespoon ground turmeric
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 Tablespoon virgin olive oil
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • 14 oz (400g) canned chickpeas, drained
  • 1 Tablespoon tahini
  • 2 large lemon (juice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven on broil position and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Place the carrot slices onto the baking sheet. Season with 1/2 Tablespoon of turmeric, sprinkle with one clove garlic (minced), and drizzle some olive oil all over. Season with salt and pepper and put in the oven on broil position for about 20 minutes until tender, stirring often.
  3. Add the carrots to a food processor together with all the remaining ingredients and mix well. Slowly add 2 or 3 tablespoons of water with the processor turned on in order to obtain a creamy consistency. When ready, taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  4. Pour the hummus into a bowl, drizzle about one tablespoon of olive oil over the top and sprinkle some additional turmeric on top.
