Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 300 g golden beetroot, peeled
  • 150 g carrots, peeled
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 1 can chickpeas, drained
  • ¼ cup tahini
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil + more for drizzling
  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • 1 tbsp parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius (360 F)
  • Chop the golden beetroot and carrot into 2cm (~¾ of an inch) chunks then add to a roasting dish. Drizzle with olive oil and bake for 30 - 45 mins or until easily pierced with a knife
  • Remove the veg from the oven then add to a blender along with all the remaining ingredients
  • Blend until smooth scraping down the sides and blending again in need. This was about a minute or two of blending for me. If needed, you can drizzle in ½ to 1 tbsp of water to ensure the hummus is super smooth
  • Just as you're ready to serve - add a good drizzle of olive oil over the top and a sprinkle of chopped parsley. Serve with crackers or chopped veg like carrots, cucumber, celery etc.
