Roasted Red Pumpkin Hummus - Vegan & Gluten Free#FantasticalFood

In India we get three types of Pumpkins, Ash Gourd( Petha or Winter Melon), White Pumpkin ( Lauki) and Red Pumpkin ( Lal Bhopla /Kaddu).

This Red Pumpkin Hummus is finger licking and really really super delicious. The cumin and thyme give such a earthy flavor to this hummus.  You must try this.

Makes 1 Cup
Ingredients  
½ Cup Packed Roasted Red Pumpkin Puree
½ Cup Boiled Chickpeas
2 Tablespoons Tahini Paste - Homemade
1 Clove Garlic
A Tablespoon of Lemon juice or according to taste
2 Tablespoons Olive oil

½ Teaspoon Fresh Thyme Leaves
¼ Teaspoon Roasted Cumin powder
Salt to taste

A Dash of Smoked Paprika

Method

Preheat oven to 180°C. Cut the pumpkin into small cubes, and place them on a baking tray. I roasted 500 grams of  pumpkin, with the peel,  with just a drizzle of oil to grease  the tray and the pumpkin. 

Roast them for about 30 to 35 minutes. See they are perfectly done.

Once the pumpkin is done  I used ½ cup of puree packed. 

In a blender add all the ingredients  and blend until smooth.  Remove this on to a bowl, 

drizzle olive oil and sprinkle  of smoked paprika.  Enjoy

This hummus is soo..oo addictive. You just can’t stop eating it , felt sorry for make such a small quantity .  Will make this again. Had it  this for lunch.. so delicious!
