Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking/roasting tray with parchment paper.
- Peel sweet potato and cut into one-inch cubes. Smash/flatten you garlic cloves with a knife.
- Spread garlic and sweet potato spaced on a parchment-lined baking/roasting tray and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast for 30 minutes or until tender and easily mashed with a fork.
- Allow to cool slightly, then add to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
- Add tahini, salt, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, cumin and the juice from 1/2 a lime. Blend well. For a thinner consistency, add a little water (1 TBSP at a time) and continue blending until smooth and creamy. I like mine extra thick!
- Pour contents into a small serving bowl and surround with your choice of fluffy flatbread, pita chips, and carrot sticks. For a side-dish vibe, use the dip as a flavorful base for your favorite protein and veggies. Enjoy!
Notes
- I topped mine with a hearty drizzle of spicy sesame oil and basically wanted to demolish the bowl! You can also add roasted pepitas, toasted sesame seeds, or even spicy seasoned nuts if you'd like to add a garnish. <-- totally optional!
- For extra heat, swirl in some additional cayenne pepper, to taste.
