Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Moroccan Carrot Hummus.
Step 1
Start by grabbing a large saucepan and tossing in your sliced carrots, minced garlic, fresh ginger, and a sprinkle of salt—just a quarter teaspoon will do.
Step 2
Now, pour in enough water to completely cover those vibrant veggies, which should be about two cups.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a lively boil.
Step 4
Once you see those bubbles dancing, lower the heat to a gentle simmer, cover the pot, and let it work its magic for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and ready to shine.
Step 5
After they’ve cooked to perfection, carefully drain the carrots and transfer them to a food processor.
Step 6
In the processor, add the remaining half teaspoon of salt, a generous scoop of apricot preserves, a splash of fresh lemon juice, a drizzle of toasted sesame oil, a pinch of ground coriander, and a dash of cayenne pepper for a little kick.
Step 7
Blend everything together until it’s beautifully smooth, but feel free to leave a bit of texture if that’s your style.
Step 8
This delightful blend will not only brighten up your meal but also add a burst of flavor that’s sure to impress! Enjoy your delicious creation!.
