Grilled Harissa Carrot Hummus Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. (See Cook's Note.)
• Put the carrots in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and toss to coat. Place the carrots on the grill and cook, flipping halfway through, until fork-tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the olive oil, maple syrup, harissa, cumin, garlic, lemon zest and black pepper in a small bowl. When the carrots are almost cooked, brush with the harissa glaze. Remove from the grill and transfer to a serving plate, then drizzle with additional harissa glaze. Follow with a drizzle of ranch dressing, then sprinkle on the pistachios and a pinch or two of flaky salt. Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut 600g carrots into chunks and toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp cumin seeds and a garlic bulb, broken into cloves. Spread onto a baking tray and roast in the oven for 40 mins or until caramelised.
• Squeeze the cloves out of their skins and tip into a food processor with the carrots, juice of 1 lemon, 120ml extra virgin olive oil, the drained and rinsed chickpeas, and some seasoning. Blitz until smooth. Swirl through some spicy rose harissa. Serve with flatbreads.

Steps:

• Combine harissa powder and 1 teaspoon chickpea liquid in a bowl. Whisk until a smooth paste forms, adding more liquid as needed. Set aside.
• Reserve about 1/2 cup of whole chickpeas for garnish. Add remaining chickpeas to the bowl of a food processor. Add 1/3 cup olive oil, tahini, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and garlic; blend until smooth. Mix in reserved harissa paste and more chickpea liquid if needed, to maintain a creamy consistency. Taste and adjust olive oil and lemon juice amounts until flavor is smooth and nutty with a kick, and not overpowered by any one element.
• Transfer hummus to a serving dish. Top with reserved 1/2 cup chickpeas, olives, cilantro, harissa powder, and any remaining olive oil. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium high heat; thoroughly clean grates and brush with oil. Toss carrots, 3 tablespoons harissa, half of the garlic, thyme, cumin and 1 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl. Lay out a 12" sheet of heavy duty foil and scrape carrot mixture into the center. Fold over the sides and form a tight seal. Grill foil pack, turning once, until carrots are tender and lightly charred, 30-45 minutes. Keep wrapped and let cool slightly.
• Puree chickpeas, reserved liquid and tahini in a food processor until smooth and thick. Add remaining 1 tablespoon harissa, remaining garlic, 2 tablespoons olive oil, cooled carrots and accumulated juices, lemon juice and 2 teaspoons salt and puree until smooth. With the motor running, drizzle in the remaining 2/3 cup oil and continue to process until creamy; adjust seasoning if necessary.
• Transfer to a serving bowl, top with additional harissa, olive oil, thyme leaves and Aleppo pepper.

Steps:

• Toss 1 1/2 pounds peeled small carrots with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Grill over medium heat, covered, turning, until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Mix 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1 tablespoon harissa, 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander and a pinch each of salt and pepper; toss with the carrots. Top with torn mint and flaky salt. Serve with lemon wedges.
