This hummus recipe is a little different from the classic one. It's coloured with nutritious beetroot and tastes heavenly. This is a versatile recipe that simple to prepare and bursting with flavour. Perfect as a dip with your favourite veggies or as a spread on some homemade gluten-free bread.

  • 500 g Vacuum packed beetroots, chopped
  • 500 g Cooked chickpeas, drained
  • 2 Garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 tbsp Sesame paste
  • 1 tbsp Freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2-3 tbsp Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh asparagus, to serve
  1. Place the beetroot, chickpeas, garlic, tahini and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor and whiz to a coarse paste.
  2. With the motor running, slowly add the oil through the feed tube until mixture is thick and smooth. If it is too thick, gently drizzle a little water into the mixture until just right. Season to taste. Drizzle a little extra olive oil over the top and serve with fresh asparagus.

  92. I just saw a recipe yesterday in a magazine for Beetroot Hummus and thought wow, I need to try that. Now here's yours. I actually have all these ingredients on hand so I'll have to try it quickly before my asparagus go bad. Thanks for sharing this - sounds yummy and healthy!

    ReplyDelete
  93. Beautiful colour on the beetroot dip and I love that you served it with asparagus instead of a customary grain. Lovely recipe too keeping the chickpea in there for texture and density while adding the nutrition and glow from the beets :)

    ReplyDelete
  94. What a lovely dip.. will try out soon

    ReplyDelete
  95. I wonder if this will work with roasted golden beetroots. I've never had beet-based hummus, always prefer simple tahini-hummus! This looks lovely!
