Chickpea Hummus
Trendy and healthy: hummus!
Hummus is widely available nowadays, but nothing compares to home-made hummus. Great as a spread on bread or as a starter. This healthy Eastern Mediterranean chickpea paste originates from Lebanon. You can easily prepare it yourself and add a personal twist. Highly recommended!
Time to get started
- Rinse the chickpeas with cold water and drain them in a colander (save a few chickpeas for garnishing).
- Puree the chickpeas in a food processor until smooth.
- Add the tahini, then the garlic and 2 teaspoons of lemon.
- Add salt to taste.
- Mix in the spicy paprika powder.
- If the puree is still a bit dry, add water or some liquid from the jar.
- Serve the dip in bowls and sprinkle with the rest of the olive oil and lemon juice.
- Garnish the hummus with the remaining chickpeas and sprinkle with sweet paprika and cumin powder for an eye-catching dish! Enjoy!
- Suggestion: Serve with freshly chopped parsley and toasted Turkish bread.
