Spring Onion Dip/Spread (Vegan)

Prep Time 12 hours
Total Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • ½ cup cashews soaked overnight in 1 cup water
  • ½ cup pistachios toasted
  • 6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 spring onions
  • 1 garlic clove
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • food processor
  • extra olive oil
  • container/glass jar (sterilized in boiling water) sterilized in boiling water

Instructions

  • Soak your cashews overnight.
  • The next day, remove the water from the cashews. Toast your pistachios and let them cool down. In the meantime, cut your spring onions and garlic clove.
  • When your pistachios have cool down, toss all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until a smooth paste (this depends on your taste). It took me 3-4 good pulses to have a spreadable paste. 
  • Store your dip/spread in a container/glass jar and seal it with a layer of olive oil. Keep it in the fridge for a few days. Enjoy on crackers, toast with avocado, in wrap stuffed with roasted vegetables or meat, in pasta (add a few tbsp of pasta water to the sauce) or as a dip for your crudités (carrots, cucumbers, celery). TIP: - Add a few tbsp of Parmesan cheese (vegan hard cheese) to make this even more savoury! If you make my recipes please tag me in them and use #thespicedchickpearecipes.
