Need a simple but delicious recipe that looks really fancy? Well, I have just the thing for you and that is a tasty recipe of curry hummus. This hummus comes together in minutes with just a few basic ingredients.
When you think of curry, you may think too spicy. But let me share with you that this recipe uses coconut milk that helps to tone down the spice factor and make this hummus super creamy.
This hummus recipe is perfect on its own to pair with fresh-cut vegetables, crackers, or even spread on a wrap. However if you need it to entertain or share with your family, then try adding it to a vegetable platter.

Vegetable Platter Tips
- Select the right serving platter. Be sure to select one that is large enough to hold everything.
- Add a couple of small bowls to the platter to hold the curry hummus.
- Prepare an assortment of raw vegetables, such as carrots, radishes, pepper rings, cucumber slices, and tomato halves.
- Add in a few extra options to the platter that will pair well with the hummus, such as chips, crackers, olives, or pita wedges.
- Artfully arrange the platter. I prefer to add the bowls of hummus first and then arrange the other ingredients around them until the platter is full.
- Have fun, serve, and enjoy a simple vegetable platter that is colorful, unfussy, and delicious.
