Comments
This has a lovely subtle flavour which can be spiced up with a dash of chilli. Serve with crackers, raw vegetable sticks or lightly cooked asparagus. With a little extra water added, it makes a great sauce to drizzle over tacos or wraps. It can also be a great accompaniment to roast vegetables.
