Beetroot Hummus
- 1 small 215g tin chickpeas (130g drained weight)
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 tbsp tahini
- 3 tbsp olive oil – not extra virgin as it can be very strong tasting
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 heaped tsp cumin
- 180g cooked beetroot
- 1-2 pitta, toasted (omit if you need gluten-free)

- Place everything into your blender/Magimix and blitz.
- Taste and see if you are happy with the flavour. Adjust to your liking. (Does it need more garlic, cumin, etc?)
- Often it comes out quite thick so add a splash of water if you want to loosen or a little glug more oil.
- Place a pitta(s) in the toaster and toast.
- Whilst hot and puffed up, cut into strip like soldiers and enjoy with your beetroot hummus.
