Hi everyone,

I thought I’d share this dish from my visit to Spain. I’ve had it twice now and it’s delicious. I just need to figure out how to make the falafels like they do as they are particularly delicious. Below is a recipe for the beetroot hummus and Babaganoush which I’ll definitely be making when I get home. I didn’t eat what was in the little dishes in the middle as I thought it probably wasn’t vegan. There was also a little bowl of tabbouleh 🙂🌱

Ali

Beetroot hummus

1/2 pound beets (about 4 medium sized beets), scrubbed clean, cooked, peeled, and cubed*

2 Tbsp tahini sesame seed paste.

5 Tbsp lemon juice.

1 small clove garlic, chopped.

1 Tbsp ground cumin.

1 Tbsp lemon zest (zest from approx. 2 lemons)

Generous pinch of sea salt or Kosher salt.

Fresh ground pepper to taste.

Babaganoush

1 large aubergine (about 450g)

1 clove garlic, crushed

1/4 tsp salt

15g finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus more for garnish

30g tahini

30ml lemon juice

That looks so yummy Ali and I can see why you've had it twice. Very wise not to eat the food in the middle dish, you never know.

Thank you for the recipes, I love Hummus but have never tried Babaganoush, it looks yummy looming at the ingredients.😋

Enjoy the rest of your holiday.😀

Thank you. Same here I have made hummus but not Babaganoush so was looking into how I was going to make it when I get home and thought I might as well share it. It looks very straightforward....Imagine if we had a dinner party and we all bought a dish. It would be the best meal and Kitten-whiskers could bring a pudding 😁 happy days 😁

Yes it does look quite straightforward to make. Yes a dinner party where we all bring a dish would be very good, shame we don't live near.

Debs Kitten-whiskers will have to share a photo of a lovely dessert on here, there's a challenge for you Debs.😉
