Vegan Party Platter And Hummus Beet Food

LOADED VEGAN HUMMUS BOWLS

Steps:

• Combine the cucumbers, tomatoes, scallions, minced dill, vinegar, oil, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Toss and let sit for 10 minutes.
• Divide the hummus between 2 shallow bowls. Make a swirl and a small well in the middle of each dollop of hummus. Divide the tomato and cucumber mixture evenly between the bowls. Add 1/4 cup of the sauerkraut to each bowl and sprinkle with the radish. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and a few dill fronds. Serve with pita bread.

BEETROOT HUMMUS PARTY PLATTER

Steps:

• Set about 2 tbsp chickpeas aside. Tip the rest of the chickpeas, the beetroot, garlic, tahini, oil and lemon juice into a food processor with a good pinch of salt. Blend until smooth, then check the seasoning, adding a little more salt or lemon if it needs it. Chill the hummus until you're ready to serve (it will keep for up to two days).
• Transfer the hummus to a wide, shallow bowl or spread over a platter. Drizzle with some oil, scatter with the reserved chickpeas, hazelnuts, seeds, sumac and chilli (if using). Arrange the crunchy veg and other accompaniments around the platter and let everyone dig in.
