Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Beetroot & Chia Seed Dip:
- For a smoother dip, soak the chia seeds in a little water for 15 minutes before blending.
- Roast your cumin seeds for the best aroma and flavor. Simply dry-roast in a pan until fragrant.
- Adjust the amount of green chili to your preferred spice level.
- For a thicker dip, use Greek yogurt or allow the dip to sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb more liquid.
