LEMON-SESAME SAUCE: Any remaining sauce can be used as a dip for roasted sweet potatoes or another vegetable or can be thinned with water or yogurt and used as a salad dressing.

In a small bowl, mix the tahini and lemon juice. Slowly mix in 1/4 cup water until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with the salt.
