Lemon-tahini sauce brings a fresh Mediterranean taste to your meal rotation, but you're not limited to just the traditional dishes:
Basic Recipe
- 1 cup tahini
- 1 cup water
- Juice of 1 large lemon
- 1-2 cloves of garlic
- 1 tsp of ground cumin (optional)
- Fresh ground salt and pepper to taste
Mix all ingredients in a food processor and blend. Adjust based on taste preferences.
Simple Variations
- Cut back on the water and add 1 cup coconut milk for a coconut tahini sauce
- Add 1 cup mint for a more refreshing flavor
Ways to Use It
I like to think outside the box when it comes to tahini sauce:
- Create a unique pasta by coating noodles, sauteed vegetables, and beans with a runny version of this sauce
- Toss chickpeas and raw veggies and serve in a wrap
- Pour over a rice and falafel dish
