Recipe instructions

  1. Place the fenugreek powder in a large bowl. Pour plenty of boiling water over the powder & stir. Using lots of water helps take away some of the bitterness of the fenugreek. Leave to stand for at least 5 hours or overnight if possible.
  2. Carefully pour the water off, to reveal surprising mound of fenugreek jelly.
  3. Place the garlic, tomato, tomato puree, caraway seeds, cardamom seeds, chilli flakes & salt in a blender & process until very smooth. Taste for seasoning. Add the fenugreek jelly & pulse to mix.
  4. Serve as a dip for warm flat bread such as pitta etc.
