tahini dip

Like hummus, this moreish dip is packed with nutrients and is excellent with salads or as a filling for sandwiches. It can be served as a dressing or dip with raw vegetables or strips of wholewheat pitta bread, or it is equally good diluted and used as a creamy pouring sauce to accompany steamed vegetables.

serves 1–2

2tbsp tahini

1 clove garlic, crushed (minced)

juice of ¹/₂ lemon

salt

freshly ground black pepper

Put the tahini into a small bowl with the garlic, 1 teaspoonful of the lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of water and stir well. The mixture will be very thick and lumpy to start with, then gradually will become smooth and creamy.

Add more water and lemon juice, as necessary, to achieve the desired consistency and flavour, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
