Hummus is one of my favourite dips. I often add an extra ingredient to it. For example, mashed Roasted Pumpkin is a great addition. Roasted Carrot is also very nice. Today I cooked a Carrot to make this dip but it was worth it. The sweet caramelised Carrot adds a lovely flavour to Hummus. I …
This is my favourite salad recently and I have been making it frequently. Today I made it again. As soon as my husband saw it, he slouched to show his disappointment, and I heard him muttering ‘Again?’ Well, I think it is delicious and nutritious, it is so easy for me to make, and it …
If you have some leftover cooked Pumpkin (roasted OR steamed), puree it, and mix it with Hummus. I used store-bought Hummus. Pureed Pumpkin adds the lovely sweetness to Hummus.

I first made this dish by accident.

I frequently make it using a variety of vegetables. However, this time, the sauce was too much for the …
