A new week is here, and while I recover from last night's shift at work, I wanna share with you a very easy & yummy recipe to feed the tummy on this Monday Munchies edition!
Hummus
Serves 4
Ingredients:
- 400 gr boiled chickpeas (a can of ready made chickpeas will work)
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 lemon
- 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
- Ground cumin
- Paprika
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Olive oil
Method:
- Drain the chickpeas & wash them to get rid of the preserving liquid in the can, drain them well again; put them in the blender. Crush the sesame seeds in a mortar till you get a paste, dilute it with a bit of water and add it to the blender too.
- Peel the garlic clove and squeeze the lemon, filter the juice. Add both to the blender with a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of ground cumin, salt & pepper to taste. Blend everything till you get a thick paste but no lumps, you can add a bit of water if it's too thick.
- Sprinkle a bit of paprika & olive oil on top, and serve with stick of raw carrot & cucumber and some pita bread for a delicious lunch or dinner!
Hello Pili!
ReplyDeletePaprika and Cumin in hummus sounds amazing. Last time I made it, I didn't put any of them and something was missing. Now I know :)
Thank you for the wonderful recipe. Hope you have a great week ahead ;)
