INGREDIENTS


  • 3 small sweet potatoes, halved

  • 1.5 cup cooked chickpeas (240g) - one 400g can without water

  • 1/4 cup water

  • juice of 1 lemon

  • 2 tbsp tahini

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 cloves garlic

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).

  2. Lay the halved sweet potatoes and halved chili on a parchment-lined baking tray. Drizzle both with a bit of olive oil, making sure the flesh of the sweet potatoes are well coated and placed skin side up on the sheet.

  3. Bake for 5 minutes, then remove chili from the tray.

  4. Flip the sweet potatoes and bake them for additional 25 minutes.

  5. Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and set aside to cool.

  6. Scoop the flesh out of the sweet potatoes and discard the peels.

  7. Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend until smooth. If you’d like the consistency to be creamier, add more tahini or olive oil. If you’d like more zest, add more lemon juice. Enjoy!
