Learn how to make Mutawan Kusa, a Palestinian grilled courgette dip.
Ingredients:
2 courgette
5 tablespoons tahini
1/2 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic
3 leaves of fresh mint
Small teaspoon salt
Pinch of sumac
Pinch of chilli powder
Wash courgettes and dry them. Add the courgettes to a grill or use a gas hob, grill them till the skins blacken and the insides turns soft (or pop them in the oven at 200 degrees for 30 minutes). Cool the courgettes.
Add the courgettes and the rest of the ingredients to a food processor and blend for a smooth, creamy dip.
Tip: if you used courgettes roasted in the oven you can add 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika.
