This vibrant chickpea and coriander dip is a refreshing alternative to shop-bought hummus, offering a light and zesty flavour profile. By blending protein-rich chickpeas with fresh herbs and citrusy lemon, you create a creamy, savoury snack that perfectly complements the charred notes of toasted pita bread. Taking a few moments to remove the chickpea skins ensures a velvet-smooth texture that feels truly indulgent while remaining low in fat.
As a versatile vegetarian dish, this recipe is ideal for healthy mid-afternoon snacking or as a simple starter for a casual dinner party. It is packed with fibre and vitamins, especially when served with crisp, raw carrot sticks for added crunch. For the best results, serve the dip slightly chilled alongside the warm, grilled pita to enjoy the contrast in temperatures.

How to make Chickpea Coriander Dip with Grilled Pita and Carrot Sticks

When fire is hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 1 to 2 seconds), grill pitas on lightly oiled grill rack, uncovered, turning once, until golden, about 2 minutes total.
