How to make pumpkin hummus

By Melanie Leyshon


Now that Halloween trick and treaters have carved their pumpkins, healthy cooks can tuck into the leftovers. Make soup, pasta dishes, roasted wedges, or try this simple and satisfying pumpkin hummus. I tasted it at Central Market, a restaurant in Petaluma, California, where it’s served as a starter with a beetroot dip. Or you could serve it as a mash, topped with grilled chicken and a drizzle of pomegranate molasses, as they also do at Central Market.
 
For my first attempt, I roasted the pumpkin, then whizzed it with the classic hummus ingredients - cumin, lemon juice and tahini. It was light and tasty, but lacked oomph. By adding a tin of chickpeas you get a richer texture and flavour. Don’t worry that this defeats the object – you won’t need to add tahini paste and you’ll get double the quantity and more nutrients, as the pumpkin adds a decent hit of vitamin A and antioxidants.

Pumpkin hummus

The ingredients
500g pumpkin, deseeded and cut into wedges
Cooking oil spray
1 x 400g tin chickpeas, drained and liquid reserved
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2tbsp lemon juice
1tbsp ground cumin
Garnish of your choice, such as roasted pumpkin or sesame seeds, or chilli powder

The method
1 Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C/gas 6. Put your prepared pumpkin wedges on a baking sheet, spray with cooking oil and cook in the oven for about 30-40 min until tender.
2 Leave to cool, then cut the flesh from the skin. Discard the skin and pop the flesh into a food processor or blender. Add the drained chickpeas, the garlic, lemon juice and cumin. Blend until smooth, adding the reserved chickpea liquid to get the texture you like. Spoon into serving bowls and garnish with whatever you fancy.

The verdict
Scarily good colour, tasty and nutritious and a good way to use up the seasonal surplus!

Gluten-free cooking made easier

By Norma McGough

If you’ve been diagnosed with coeliac disease, adapting to a gluten-free diet can seem daunting at first, but with a few ingredient switches, you can still enjoy your favourite recipes. Try these…

* There’s a lot of gluten-free pasta available now, so you can still enjoy spaghetti bolognese and lasagne if you also use cornflour for your cheese sauce and buy a gluten-free bolognese sauce.

* Try alternative cereals such as quinoa and teff. Quinoa is nutritious (it contains protein, fibre, iron and folate) and ideal as a basis for salads – and teff adds a delicious nutty flavour to biscuits. 

* If you’re ever stuck for ideas in the kitchen, branch out into different cuisines: Mexican meals include a lot of corn and rice, which are both naturally gluten-free cereals, so you could maybe go for corn tacos with chilli, guacamole and salsa; Indian and Thai curry sauces, also served with rice, are usually made with combinations of onions, garlic, ginger and fresh chilli with spices, maybe with coconut milk or ground nuts, so are often gluten free, too. 

* A bit of experimentation, plus speciality flours and baking aids (including gluten-free baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and xanthan gum) can make gluten-free baking a success. It’s the gluten that gives your bread, cakes and pastry the right texture and provides structure, which is why gluten-free bread can be dry and solid, and cakes and pastry a lot more crumbly. But there are many speciality flours available in supermarkets that work perfectly well in your favourite recipes.

Whether you’ve been diagnosed, are seeking a diagnosis or need information to support friends and family with coeliac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis, Coeliac UK is there to help.

ReNew Hope Prison Crusade 2014

We arrived here in Montgomery, Alabama, late Saturday night. 
The prison crusade rally (orientation/training) was all day Sunday, and was attended by all 400+ singing groups/evangelists/volunteers.
Once again it was such a blessed time of meeting up again with many many old friends, and making new ones as well! 
The theme of the crusade this year is the prodigal son and the "extravagant love of the Father". 
There were several messages about this that were so encouraging and challenging.
Our family shared a few songs in the afternoon.
"the littles".
I have to just brag on them for a minute-they have been working SO hard this past year, learning to fill in the shoes of their older siblings. Each of them has 1-3 instruments that they practice faithfully every day, five days a week. In addition, they have been working even more on harmonizing together. 
The song they are singing above is in three part harmony and I never tire of hearing it-it is SO BEAUTIFUL to hear all those little voices harmonizing together!
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Last night was our first prison service of the week. We were so excited to be singing again at Tutwiler women's prison. We hadn't been there for several years and it is one of our favorite prisons to sing at so we were thrilled to be back there.
The whole service was absolutely incredible-such a blessing. Its hard to put it into words but to sum it up I would say that there was no where else I would've rather been last night.
A number of ladies came forward at the invitation for salvation and there were also many that came forward to be prayed with and encouraged. It was such an amazing time-God was SO THERE.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Today, we'd ask all of you blog readers to please be in prayer with us for the weather. 
For whatever reason it seems that everyone thinks that we are "vacationing in the sunny south" currently. Not so! Last week when we left Texas we barely missed a big ice storm and we are currently in the middle of another one here in Alabama. Sadly this has caused basically all of today's prison services to be cancelled. So instead of preparing to go into the prisons, all of us and the other 100ish Montgomery area volunteers/singing groups are spending the day here at the hotel base. Not exactly where we'd all prefer to be; we would all much rather be in prison right now, honestly! But we're trusting that God has a plan in all of this, and praying that the weather would clear and warm up quickly so that we'd all be able to go back in tomorrow!
If y'all would join with us in praying for that, we would be grateful!
And also for the inmates-the crusade is a huge highlight for them and I'm sure they are all disappointed too.
Thank-you!
:::::::::::::::::::::::
And since we DO have to be stuck in a hotel, we are making the most of it and there are multiple parties of different sorts going on. =) I'm currently sitting here writing in the hotel lobby. Just a few feet away is a group of various people, jamming and singing. There are discussions going on at other areas of the lobby. A group is playing games in one of the conference rooms. Our family is getting ready to meet some dear friends for lunch in another conference room. I'm sure tonight there will be much more music and prayer/sharing, as has happened in past years when we've had weather issues and not been able to go into the prisons.

Blueberry Banana Pancakes

 

This pancake recipe is different then my Almond Cherry Pancakes. I love that recipe, but I love this one even more.  These are the closest to regular pancakes I have made while making them grain-free. They are fluffy and delicious!

Banana Pancakes
Makes 5 small pancakes

Ingredients: banana, eggs, coconut flour, almond flour, coconut oil/ghee or butter

Blend together: 
• 1/2 of a large banana
• 2 eggs 
• 2 Tbsp almond flour
• 1 Tbsp coconut flour

In a large skillet, cook in a mixture of  coconut oil/butter on medium for 2-4 minutes on each side. Then top w/ fruit, honey, maple syrup or however you like your pancakes!  The pancakes pictured above are topped with a homemade blueberry sauce.

Simple Blueberry Sauce
Makes 1/2 a cup

Ingredients: Blueberries, water, and stevia 

In a small pan heat over medium:
• 1/2 cup frozen blueberries

Cook covered until blueberries are completely thawed out, approx. 3-5 minutes.  Then place in a blender.  Add enough water to allow blueberries to blend.  Sometimes you won't need to add any.  Don't blend too much, just enough so there are not large chunks  Then pour the bluberry mixture back into the pan and turn the heat up high and bring to boil.  Boil until mixture is thickened, around 5 minutes.  It all depends how much water there is.  {Optional: add a few drops of stevia or any other kind of sweetener}.

Then layer pancakes w/ the berry goodness and enjoy!

Ditch the takeaway – try this…


There’s a misconception that all Indian cuisine is fattening, calorie-laden and generally unhealthy. But step away from creamy curries and deep-fried starters and you’ll find a host of fresh, flavourful dishes that are not only kinder to your waistline, but good for your health, too.
Sabbir Karim, Best Innovative Asian and Oriental Chef of the Year 2013 and owner of London’s Namaaste Kitchen and Salaam Namaaste, is an advocate of healthy Indian cooking. 

"I’m not sure where this misconception began that made people think that all Indian food is high in saturated fats, calories and overall just unhealthy for you. In the past, it's true, more attention used to be given to the taste of the food, rather than considering the nutritional value. But as more and more chefs have become aware and educated in the healthy eating and healthy cooking concept, they have shifted their focus to the nutritional value and how the Indian food is prepared. The fact is that when we cook traditional Indian food, unlike some of the takeaways people are used to, we use fresh ingredients and produce and we also incorporate a lot of vegetables into our dishes. Indian cooking also requires using a lot of spices that are considered to have healing properties, such as turmeric, ginger and garlic – all of which are healthy ingredients."

So this weekend, ditch the takeaway menu and treat yourself instead to Sabbir’s signature recipe…

Lahori Tawa Lamb Chops (lamb chops marinated in fresh ginger paste, papaya, herbs and spices)  

Prep 20 min + marinating
Cook 35 min
Serves 4

For the lamb chops
2tbsp ginger paste
2tbsp garlic paste
1½tbsp papaya paste (½ papaya, deseeded but skin on, blended with 2tbsp cooking oil)
4 large lamb chops, trimmed and flattened slightly
1tbsp lemon juice
2tsp garam masala
½tsp chilli powder (to taste)
1tsp ground cumin
1tsp ground coriander
5tbsp natural yogurt
½tbsp fenugreek seeds
½tsp chilli flakes
½tbsp cooking oil
1tsp English mustard
2tsp mint sauce

For the sauce
50ml cooking oil
4 onions, chopped
3tbsp ginger paste
2tbsp garlic paste
2tsp tomato purée
4 cherry tomatoes, sliced
4tsp makhani cooking sauce (available from Waitrose and Ocado)
1tsp chilli powder
2tsp ground turmeric
245g natural yogurt
2tsp lemon juice
1½tsp ground coriander
2tsp chopped fresh mint
½tsp kewra water or rose water
2tsp garam masala
Watercress, to garnish

1. First, prepare the lamb chops. Combine the ginger garlic and papaya pastes in a large mixing bowl, then massage into the lamb. Cover, then transfer to the fridge to marinate for at least 40 min.
2. Put the remaining lamb chop ingredients in a medium bowl and mix to a fine paste. Take the lamb out of the fridge, then add the paste to the bowl and turn to coat the chops. Cover, then return to the fridge for at least 1 hr.
3. Preheat the oven to its hottest setting. Lift the lamb chops out of the marinade on to a baking tray, then cook for 10–15 min. Set aside and keep warm.
4. Next, make the sauce. Heat the cooking oil in a large frying pan, then fry the onions until golden. Add the ginger paste, garlic paste and the tomato purée and mix well. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook until soft. Stir in the makhani sauce, then add the chilli powder, turmeric and yogurt. Add the lamb chops to the frying pan with the lemon juice, ground coriander, chopped mint and 500ml water, then simmer for 3–4 min until the sauce is reduced and thick. Stir in the kewra water or rose water and the garam masala.
5. Divide the lamb among 4 plates, then garnish with watercress and serve with garlic naan or basmati rice, if you like.

Health tip: why this dish is good for you

Lamb is a good source of vitamin B12, needed for normal cell division as well as neurological and psychological functions, and to prevent fatigue.

Garam masala (a blend of traditional South Asian spices, such as cumin, black pepper, cardamom, cinnamon and cloves) is great for adding flavour, so you don't need any salt.
Ginger is good for soothing the digestive system and may also help alleviate pain linked to arthritis.
Yogurt is a good source of protein and is rich in calcium, needed for healthy bones and teeth.
