Hummus

Grilled Pita & Vegetables

Method

Preparing the Hummus

  1. 1

    Roasting Carrots and Garlic

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and chop the carrots into small pieces. Place them on a baking sheet along with unpeeled garlic cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes or until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized.

  2. 2

    Blending the Hummus

    Once the carrots and garlic are roasted, allow them to cool slightly. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of its skin and add it to a food processor along with the roasted carrots, tahini, lemon juice, cumin, and water. Blend until smooth, adding more water if needed to achieve the desired consistency.

  3. 3

    Finishing Touches

    Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and a bit more lemon juice if desired. Drizzle with olive oil before serving.

Grilling Pita and Vegetables

  1. 4

    Preparing the Vegetables

    Slice the zucchini and bell peppers into thin strips. Toss the vegetables in olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 5

    Grilling

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they have nice grill marks and are tender. Grill the pita bread for 1-2 minutes on each side until slightly crispy and warm.

  3. 6

    Serving

    Serve the hummus in a bowl, garnished with a drizzle of olive oil. Arrange the grilled pita and vegetables around the hummus for dipping.
