Start the Tzatziki in advance as the first step takes 2 hours. Combine the salt and grated cucumber and place in a sieve over a bowl for 2 hours to draw the moisture out of the cucumber, then squeeze as much liquid out of the cucumber as possible. Stir the cucumber into the yoghurt along with the rest of the Tzatziki ingredients until well combined. Season to taste and keep chilled until ready to serve. Garnish with a swirl of olive oil, some freshly cracked pepper and some fresh mint and/or parsley. Dill is also delicious.
Place the chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and cumin in a food processor and blend until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add some of the reserved chickpea liquid or cold water to loosen the mixture to your desired consistency. Season to taste. Garnish with a glug of NOMU Extra Virgin Olive Oil, a pinch of sumac or cumin and pomegranate rubies.
Hummus and tzatziki are a match made in heaven, especially when served with Greek lamb and charred pita bread!
Tip: For a smoky spicy twist in your hummus, add 1/2 tsp of NOMU Cook’s Collection Chipotle Flakes or Smoked Sweet Paprika
