Recipe


Ingredients

  • Hummus
  • 3 cups cooked chickpeas
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • ¼ cup tahini
  • ½ cup lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 2 cups water

  • 1 carrot
  • ½ beetroot
  • 9 slices wholemeal bread, crusts removed
  • 3 Lebanese cucumbers, very thinly sliced
  • 28 long chives
  • Edible viola flowers

Method


  • To make hummus, place all ingredients except water in blender and puree. Slowly add water. Puree until smooth.
  • Divide prepared hummus into 3 batches.
  • To make carrot hummus, add carrot to blender and add one-third of hummus. Blend until hummus is smooth and orange. Place in container.
  • For beetroot hummus, add beetroot to blender and add one-third of hummus. Blend until hummus is smooth and purple.
  • To prepare triple layered sandwiches, lay out 3 bread slices and spread 1 slice with one of the colours of hummus. Next, place cucumber slices on top of each colour; these will be bottom layers of triple-layer sandwiches.
  • Next, spread 3 more slices of bread with other coloured hummus. Choose a different colour from base colour and place on top of cucumber-covered slices.
  • Then, final slices can be carefully placed on top and cut into four squares with knife.
  • Wrap 1 long thin chive around each sandwich and tie at top with a little knot. Trim ends of chive to neaten then place an edible viola flower on top of each sandwich. Serve on china plate for indulgent high tea.
