I have decided to move the blog to Wordpress because it is easier to catagorise recipes. If you are looking for a specific recipe and can't find it here please look at the new Wordpress Blog. Thanks

Spiced Carrot Dip

This is a quick easy dip that is healthy and light, it is a great recipe to put out, prior to a meal, for guests to pick at or as something to snack on. I made this on the weekend as I had my family over for my sisters birthday. I have also made this along with other dips when I have had 20-30 people over for a party, as something to snack on, while I am getting together the main affair.




Ingredients



4 Medium carrots, peeled and chopped coarsely
1 Tablespoon of olive oil
2 Cloves Garlic, crushed
3/4 Teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 Teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 Teaspoon ground turmeric
150g Greek yogurt
2 Tablespoons fresh coriander, chopped finely


Method

1. Boil or microwave carrots until soft, drain

2. Heat oil in a frying pan cook garlic and spices until fragrant.

3. Blend or process carrot, spices, yogurt and coriander until smooth.

Refrigerate until needed.

Serve with either homemade dippers or store bought.
