Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 2 cups (500g)
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup (150g) diced yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
- 1/2 teaspoon Celtic sea salt, plus more to taste
- 1/4 cup (60ml) Massel vegetable broth, plus more as needed
- 2 cups (320g) steamed cubed carrots (about 3 cups raw)
- 3 tablespoons tahini, plus more to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
- 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro, to serve
Instructions
-
In a small skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil, and sauté the onion and garlic with a pinch of the salt for about 5 minutes, until the onion is soft and translucent.
-
Place the broth, steamed carrots, tahini, lemon juice, coriander, cumin, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne, and remaining salt into your blender, and add the onion mixture.
-
Blast on high for 30 to 60 seconds until smooth and creamy. You may have to stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the container to ensure all of the ingredients fully incorporate. Tweak tahini, lemon juice, and salt to taste.

Transfer to a sealed container in the fridge to chill and thicken. Serve with veggie sticks or crackers, or slather on sandwiches and wraps.

Wow, those flavors are amazing! This dip beats hummus in my books (and I love hummus so that means a lot). I especially love the cinnamon in there
Great! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Directions say “1/4 cup (60ml) Massel vegetable broth, plus more as needed.” Is this 1/4 dry or reconstituted?
Sorry for any confusion Cindy. It is 1/4 cup of liquid broth.
How long does this store for?
It keeps for about 5 days in the fridge.
