Servings: 1-2

INGREDIENTS
1 tub of our Organic Classic Houmous
1 medium sized sweet potato
2 medium sized beetroot
Coconut oil
Paprika
Cumin
Olive oil
Salt

INSTRUCTIONS
1. First pre-heat your oven to gas mark 3/150 degrees with fan/170 degrees without
2. Now carefully slice all of your sweet potato and beetroot thinly with a mandolin or sharp knife
3. Pat dry all of your vegetable slices between two jay cloths or kitchen roll
4. Next put all of your beetroot slices into a metal bowl and mix in 1 teaspoon of melted coconut oil and sprinkle a generous pinch of salt and cumin
5. Put the beetroot into the oven, onto a greased foil surface. Careful not to let them overlap. Cook for 10 minutes and then turn them over and cook until they crisp.
