Tips & tricks

By the way, in addition to fish, meat, vegetables and salad, our spicy banana dip is also delicious with homemade whole wheat crackers – a snack that is sure to be a hit at your next party. To make them, simply mix together half a cup of wholemeal flour, half a cup of wheat flour, two tablespoons of ground chia seeds or crushed flax seeds and ¾ teaspoon of salt and ¾ teaspoon of baking powder. Add ⅓ cup of water and a tablespoon of olive oil and work into a dough, kneading well. Add another one or two tablespoons of water if necessary. Divide the dough into four equal-sized pieces, cover and leave to rest for about 10 minutes. Then roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface until it is wafer thin. Carefully place the dough on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon and bake in the oven for about four minutes at 200° Celsius (top and bottom heat). Remove from the oven and break into mouth-sized pieces.
