My annual Thanksgiving feast is always special. This year I plan on preparing savory roasted pumpkin with hummus and tahini. Before serving, I drizzle pomegranate seeds, pine nuts, and herbs. This entree will brighten up my feast.
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cup roasted pumpkin puree
- 1 cup chickpea, boiled
- 1 tablespoon tahini
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds
- 1 tablespoon pine nuts
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil, plus more for garnishing
- Sea salt as needed
Method:
In a food processor, add roasted pumpkin puree, chickpea, lime juice, sesame oil, tahini, red chili flakes, and sea salt. Blend them to make a smooth sauce. Place the sauce in a serving bowl. Drizzle pomegranate seeds, pine nuts, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sesame oil. Serve with bread or crackers.
