You cut vegetable sticks with dips from carrot, cucumber, pepper and celery into even batons. You whisk up two dips: a yogurt one with garlic, lemon and chives and a hummus one with paprika. You arrange the sticks in glasses by color and set the dips in the middle. You serve them right away while the vegetables are crisp and juicy.

Step by step process

Preparing the Vegetables

1
Wash the vegetables well. Dry them with a kitchen towel so the dips cling cleanly later.
2
Peel the carrots. Leave the cucumber unpeeled, then remove the cores and seeds from both peppers.
3
Cut everything into neat batons of similar length, keeping them sturdy enough to hold and dip.
4
Trim the celery to match. If any tough strings stand out, pull them away with a small knife.

Dips

5
Add yogurt to a bowl. Stir in the crushed garlic, lemon juice, oil, and chives until smooth.
6
Season with salt and pepper, then let the bowl stand for 5 minutes so the garlic softens.
7
Mix the hummus with lemon juice and oil. Finish it with a light dusting of sweet paprika.

Serving

8
Arrange the batons in glasses or on a wide plate, grouped by type for easy serving.
9
Set the dips in small bowls in the center. Serve at once, while the vegetables are firm and juicy.
