Beetroot hummus

A bit fancier than the standard hummus, this is impressive both in its vibrant colour and it’s delicious taste.

1 can chickpeas, drained

2-3 tbspns lemon juice
2 tbspn olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
¼ cup tahini/sesame paste

Whack it all in a blender or food processor and process for about 30 seconds. Add a little water if its too thick or sticky. Season with salt and pepper.

Then add in the following:

1 can of 420g beetroot, drained

1 tspn ground cumin
1 onion, diced

Give it another good 30 seconds of processing until smooth.
