This is my roasted celeriac hummus that’s so easy to make and is great for dipping chicory or lightly toasted wholemeal khobez - it’s vegan too!

What you will need:

  • 1 small celeriac (peeled and chopped)

  • 1 teaspoon of Ras el Hanout spice mix

  • 1 onion

  • 1 tin of cannellini beans or chickpeas, drained

  • 1 tablespoon of tahini

  • 50g coconut feta

  • A few saffron strands (optional)

  • Juice and zest of half a lemon

  • A good pinch of Maldon sea salt

  • Preserved lemon (cut into small pieces to serve)

  • A drizzle of mandarin or citrus olive oil

What you need to do:

  1. Start off by roasting a small celeriac with Ras el Hanout spices, along with a white onion until tender and lightly charred.

  2. Once cooled blitz these up along with a drained can of cannellini beans, around a dessert spoon of tahini, coconut feta, a pinch of saffron and enough extra virgin olive oil to make it lusciously smooth.

  3. Serve up with preserved lemons and a good drizzle of Sicilian mandarin olive oil.

  4. For dipping you could go for chicory and lightly toasted wholemeal khobez breads.
