Roasted beetroot hummus

Hummus is a kind of spreadable pasta based on chickpeas. These are also included in this version, only with the addition of roasted beetroot. Why roasted? Because it just adds an extra cachet to the taste.

This spread is – in addition to reddish – very tasty as dipsauce with raw vegetables or with a slice of Turkish bread. Likewise, just smear it between your sandwich. In the refrigerator it is on average about 3 to 4 days shelf life. So if you do not eat so much, you can better make smaller portions (this is for about 4 people).

You can also serve the roasted beetroot as a side dish instead of hummus. In that case you take 8 red beets for 4 people.

Oh yes, very tasty at a salad too. It does not stop 😉

Recipe Notes

* Chickpeas can of course be bought in can, but you can save a lot of waste, for example, by purchasing a bulk pack of dried chickpeas. They are very long-lasting and will save you a lot of canned, money and waste.

However, you must soak them at least 12 hours in advance and then cook for another 1 hour.
