Ingredients Needed
- ¼ cup / 60ml Tahini paste
- 2 cloves Garlic (peeled)
- 3 tbsp / 45ml Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tbsp / 45ml Water (add more if needed)
- 1 ½ tbsp / 22ml Lemon juice
- ¼ tsp Cumin
- ⅛ tsp Smoked paprika
- ¼ tsp Sea salt (or to taste)
- ⅛ tsp Black pepper (or to taste)
How To Make Low Carb Keto Tahini Sauce
- Blend everything: Put all the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.
- Make it thinner if needed: If it’s too thick, add a little water (one tablespoon at a time) and mix again.
- Serve or store: Use it right away or keep it in the fridge for later.

Recipe Tips
- Use good-quality tahini: Some brands can be too thick or bitter. Look for smooth and creamy tahini for the best taste.
- Blend well for a smooth texture: If the sauce looks grainy, keep blending or add a little more water to make it silky.
- Adjust the water slowly: Add water one tablespoon at a time until you get the right thickness—thick for dipping, thinner for dressing.
- Let it rest for better flavour: The flavours blend and improve after 10 minutes, so give it a little time before serving.
- Balance the taste: If it’s too bitter, add a bit more lemon juice. If it tastes too strong, add a little more olive oil or water.
How To Store Tahini Sauce Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: Let the tahini sauce cool to room temperature, then transfer it to an airtight container. Store it in the fridge for up to 5 days. Stir well before using, as the ingredients may separate over time.
- Freeze: Pour the sauce into a freezer-safe container, leaving some space for expansion. Freeze for up to 2 months. When ready to use, thaw in the fridge overnight and stir well before serving.
