Hummus
1 lb. Yellow potatoes
1 teaspoon Sea salt
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon tahini
3 Tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon bittersweet smoked paprika, plus more for serving
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
For Serving
6-8 small carrots, cut into sticks
1 bunch radishes, trimmed halved or quartered if large
6-8 baby bell peppers, halved or quartered if large, seeds removed
1/2 bunch skinny asparagus, ends trimmed
Preparation
Prep Time: 15min | Cook Time: 15min
Pour water into a saucepan to a depth of about 2 inches, add a few pinches of salt, and set over medium-high heat.
Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and chop them into one-inch chunks.
Once the water is boiling, cook potatoes for 6-7 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes, rinse them with cold water, and put them in the bowl of a food processor.
Add sea salt (start with about a teaspoon) and the garlic and pulse a few times. Add the tahini, lemon juice, and paprika, and process until very smooth. With the processor running, add the olive oil in a steady stream and continue to blend until well combined. Taste and add additional salt if desired.
Transfer the hummus to a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with paprika. Serve at room temperature with fresh vegetables.
Notes
Instead of fresh vegetables, this dip is also delicious with pita chips or crackers.
