FAQ
How do I get the cauliflower crispy and golden?
Toss the florets thoroughly in oil and spices and roast them hot at 200°C, spread out with space so they roast rather than steam. In the air fryer, shake the basket halfway through for even browning.
What does the ice cube do to the hummus?
Blending a small ice cube into the hummus with the beetroot makes it lighter and fluffier as the cold water emulsifies it. If you skip it, a splash of cold water and a little extra olive oil have a similar effect.
Can I use store-bought hummus?
Absolutely — good store-bought hummus saves time and still works beautifully as the creamy base. Blend it briefly with the beetroot and lemon juice to freshen it up and give it colour.
