A really pretty, rich dip that is great with raw vegetables or chips.
Ingredients:
- 4 cups of carrots that have been washed, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1/4 cup tahini (sesame seed paste). Available in all markets.
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Juice from 1 lemon
- 3 tablespoons of water
- 2 cloves of garlic
Directions:
Heat your oven to 400 degrees. Place the carrots on a baking sheet with the garlic cloves. Toss with oil and salt. Roast for 20 minutes.
Remove from oven and place in a food processor with the remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth.
Sprinkle with parsley if desired and chill. Serve with vegetable crudities or chips.
