Roast Cauliflower & Spiced Honey Carrots with Whipped Hummus
By admin 2 Comments
I sometimes say “This dish is going on the Cafe Menu” – which means that if I were ever to start a cafe, this dish would be on the menu. I’ve gathered together three of Yotam Ottolenghi’s ideas and added a bit.
Serves 2 people.
Whipped Hummus
I’m not even sure if Ottolenghi uses this term, but others do. The idea is that the hummus is smooth and creamy.
The simplest thing is to follow Ottolenghi’s advice here. The secret is to use dried chickpeas and use the bicarb of soda to help get rid of the hulls.
NOTE: Save 2/3 cup of the whole, cooked chickpeas (see below).

Pickles and Chutney
At the end of summer we’re pickling all kinds of things. Here are a few that we’ve bottled. Stephanie’s Bread & Butter Zucchini Pickles from The Cook’s Companion This of course is a cooking Bible and therefore essential in every kitchen. We had a surfeit of yellow squash and I was looking for a simple…
Quinoa & Sweet Potato Burger
I’ve become quite a fan of Martin Nordin’s Green Burgers, which I bought at bargain price some time ago. Since we’re in COVID-19 lockdown mode, we’re taking the opportunity to try some new recipes. I varied the patty recipe slightly, and the additions. For 6 burgers 600g 0r 3 medium sweet potatoes – bake in…
