Cooking Steps

  1. 1

    In a food processor, combine the Stokes Purple® sweet potatoes with the tahini, spices, garlic, salt and lemon. Blitz the ingredients until all is well incorporated, then slowly alternate between adding the water and olive oil until the hummus is smooth and creamy – this will take about a minute. (Don’t overprocess, as the sweet potatoes can become sticky!)

  2. 2

    Taste for salt and lemon and adjust to your preference. If you prefer thinner hummus, add more water or lemon juice as needed.

  3. 3

    Spread into a bowl, using the back of a spoon to create a swirl. Garnish with a generous drizzle of olive oil, and a good sprinkle of aleppo pepper and sumac.
