TIPS

Here are some tips for Spicy Black Bean Dip with Cucumber Chips:

  • Adjust spice levels: Increase or decrease the chilli powder based on your spice preference.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Freshly squeezed lime juice enhances the flavour better than bottled versions.
  • For a creamier texture: Blend the beans with a dash of olive oil or tahini for a smoother dip.
  • Best served fresh: For the crunchiest cucumber chips, serve immediately after slicing.

VARIATIONS

 

  • Extra Heat: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few drops of hot sauce for more spice.
  • Creamy Version: Blend in Greek yoghurt or avocado for a richer texture.
  • Crunchy Topping: Sprinkle with toasted pumpkin seeds or crushed tortilla chips for an extra bite.
  • Garlic Twist: Add a pinch of garlic powder for a deeper, savoury flavour.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

 

  • Refrigeration: Store any leftover black bean dip in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Cucumber Chips: Best sliced fresh, but can be stored in a sealed container with a paper towel for up to 1 day.
  • Freezing: Not recommended, as the dip’s texture may change upon thawing.
