Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cauliflower florets
- 1 cup Roasted red peppers, drained
- 0.25 cup Tahini
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Spread the cauliflower florets evenly on a baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Roast cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown, stirring halfway through the cooking time.
Allow the roasted cauliflower to cool for about 5 minutes.
In a food processor, combine the roasted cauliflower, roasted red peppers, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, salt, cumin, and paprika.
Blend the mixture in the food processor until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides occasionally to ensure everything is well combined.
Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning if needed, by adding more salt, lemon juice, or spices.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and garnish with chopped parsley.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days. Serve as a dip with fresh vegetables.
