Easy Carrot Dip With a Bite
By: Leggy Peggy
Sep 7, 2007
I made Petroushka's Best Ever Homemade Mayonnaise yesterday and thought — the food processor is already dirty, so I might as well make something else. After a bit of experimentation, this was the end result. I took it to office drinks today and it got two thumbs up from everyone. I used a tin of baby carrots, but you can make this recipe harder for yourself by cooking 250 grams (8 ounces) of sliced fresh carrots until they are tender, draining them and then following the rest of the recipe. I'm sure you could double or triple this for a crowd. Use yogurt only if you need to reduce the heat.
SERVES 12
Ingredients
- 440 g baby carrots, drained (drained weight is 250 grams)
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise, not a sweet one
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (optional)
Directions
1
Drain the carrots and put all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Add the yogurt ONLY if you want to reduce the heat.2
Buzz until you have the desired consistency.

I made this for a bonfire where about 40 people attended. It scored a unanimous 5 stars. No one picked the carrot as the main ingredient. The spice quantities are perfect. The cayenne doesn't add too much heat - just rounds out the flavours nicely. I took along the yogurt (just in case) but did not need to add it. I served it with microwaved pappadams and celery sticks.

Made this for a party, and it went down a treat1 I mad it with left over roast carrot and it worked so well! I also used 1/4 cup of the yogurt as it did have a bit of a kick to it and I thought I should cut the heat down just a fraction for serving, and it was perfect! Such a quick and easy recipe. Thanks Peggy it was enjoyed by everyone who ate it!
