    Sriracha Carrot Hummus

    I love the thick texture and delicious taste of this Sriracha Carrot Hummus recipe. I never thought I could add Sriracha to my Hummus; however, I loved it. It gives the dish a tiny spicy kick, which I like.

    This is a tested fail-proof recipe because its step-by-step process is quick and easy to follow. You will never go wrong with just a simple combining of the ingredients in one bowl, plus it is budget-friendly too!

    You may enjoy your Hummus any time of the day. There is no strict adherence as to when you may serve it. You can have it as an appetizer for a meal or treat it as your dip during snack time.

    Personally, I like to serve it as a snack with some pita bread, crackers, or tortilla chips.

    After making so many dip recipes, let me tell you, all you need to make a smooth Hummus is a powerful food processor or high-speed blender.

    Sriracha Carrot Hummus Ingredients

    Let's talk about the ingredients you need to make this recipe:

    Chickpeas. I used canned chickpeas; It gives Hummus a nutty, earthy flavor.

    Tahini. To pair the nutty and earthy flavor of chickpeas, add tahini to the mixture. It has a strong, earthy flavor and we will only use 2 tablespoons.

    Roasted Carrots. The carrots provide depth of flavor to the hummus. It is best to use roasted carrot since it allows for intense sweetness transmitted to the dip. Roasted carrots provide a bright tinge of orange to the hummus.

    Garlic. It adds a warm flavor to the hummus, which is almost close to being spicy. Garlic will also balance out the taste of the rest of the ingredients in the mixture since it is a well-known flavoring agent.

    Seasonings. Season your hummus with coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt.

    Sriracha. Add more spice into the mixture by pouring in sriracha to your hummus.

    Olive Oil. Olive oil will make the texture of your Hummus silkier and smoother.

    Lemon juice. It gives a burst of complex citrus flavor to the hummus.

    Parsley. For a classic look of your dish, garnish it too with parsley.

    Pine Nut. The extra-nutty flavor is added when you garnish pine nut to your hummus.

    Variations & Substitutions

    • Adding cinnamon powder to the mixture intensifies its spice.
    • Greek yogurt or peanut butter is a good substitute for tahini.
    • Garnish your Carrot Hummus with the simple crunch of black sesame seeds; these seeds also taste nutty! You can also garnish with fresh herbs such as chives or basil.

    How to Make Sriracha Carrot Hummus?

    Add all the ingredients except the olive oil into a food processor and blend.

    Before starting, preheat the oven to 374F / 190C.

    One (Roast the carrot): Wash, peel and slice the carrots, and then arrange them on a baking sheet, spray with oil spray and bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes.

    Two: Add Chickpeas, Tahini, roasted carrots, garlic, coriander powder, cumin powder, salt, Sriracha and lemon juice into a food processor, beat until finely minced.

    Three: Gradually add the olive oil in a tiny stream while blending and beat until smooth.

    Four: Transfer carrot hummus onto a serving plate. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with pine nuts, chickpeas and parsley leaves.

    Top Tips!

    • Don't overwork the mixture for a better consistency!
    • Let the hummus sit overnight for a more intense flavor since, by that time, all flavors had finally settled in.

    Recipe FAQs

    How to store hummus?

    Refrigeration below 40°F after each usage will keep your hummus fresher longer. Moisture and other pollutants should be kept out while storing hummus in a firmly closed container.

    How to fix runny hummus?

    A little bit of cornstarch/cornflour can significantly absorb the runny juices in your hummus. Be mindful of the amount you add, though, since it may alter the taste of the hummus.
