Building on what we made yesterday…this addictive dip is delicious and uses the tasty harissa. If you want more of a kick, add more harissa.

Serves:4-6
Preparation time:20 minutes
Cooking time:15 minutes

You will need

1 large butter nut squash or pumpkin (around 750g-800g)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp caraway seeds
1 tsp Moroccan spice mix
1 large garlic clove, crushed
1 tsp harissa, or to taste
Bunch coriander, washed
3 tbsp lemon juice
Salt, to taste

Method

1. Peel and de-seed the pumpkin/squash. Chop the flesh into large chunks, place in a pan and cover with water. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover tightly, and allow to cook in its own juices, until tender. Drain and set aside.

2. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the caraway seeds and spice mix, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and aromatic (around four minutes). Stir in the garlic and fry for one minute, then add the pumpkin or squash, mashing with a fork, before adding all the remaining ingredients. Stir well to combine then remove from the heat. Let the dip cool before serving.

About Paleo Works

Paleo Works Have you ever wondered how you arrived at “being overweight” and thought how difficult it is to get rid of and keep off those excess pounds? Hi, I’m Katie and together with Mike my husband, we are Paleo Works. As a busy working mum of four, I often watched others embark on weight loss progammes only to return to their start weight (and then some) shortly after reaching their target. Why was this happening? Conventional dietary wisdom would have us believe that it’s YOU who has failed. But Mike and I thought different. We felt that there had to be something wrong with that conventional dietary wisdom after all we can’t all be hopeless? So we studied intensely, sought out advice and read avidly. We questioned robustly and talked with many on various 'dieting' regimes. What we found was radical, our story has to be told, our knowledge has to be shared. So If you are ready to stop blaming your self for being overweight and ready to change your approach to weight loss then contact us and let’s get started!
