My daughter and I loved something very much like this in a London pub recently, served with warm wheat pita wedges. I came home and tried to replicate it. The basil was a last-minute inspiration, as I had just picked a lot of it in my garden. Ingredients:
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed, drained, and mashed |
1 sweet potato, cooked and mashed |
1/4 cup orange juice (or to taste, can sub lemon juice) |
1/4 cup olive oil |
3 garlic cloves, minced (or to taste) |
1/4 cup fresh basil leaf, minced |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
salt and black pepper |
Directions:
1. Mix well in food processor and serve with warm pita bread or crackers.
