HUMMUS

 FABULOUS HUMMUS DIP WITH SMOKED PAPRIKA OIL

 

 

A super quick dip to make that pleases almost everyone, just make sure you make enough to have some stashed in the fridge for yourself too.  I like to serve my hummus with toasted wholemeal pittas cut into triangles, as these are my favourite and then some corn chips and bread twists.

 

INGREDIENTS

 

1 can of chic peas or 400g dried & pre soaked

4 cloves of garlic peeled

3 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp ground cumin

100ml tahini paste

approx 60ml water

30-50ml good virgin ooil

salt

pepper

FINISHING TOUCHES

1 tsp smoked paprika

2 tbsp ooil

 

Quick and simple, place all the ingredients except the finishing touches in your food processor and start to blend and then pulse, so you can maintain a little more control over the consistency, once you have the desired consistency taste and then season more with salt, pepper and lemon juice.

FOR THE FINISHING TOUCHES

Gently heat the oil to a warm heat and add the smoked paprika, swirl around and then pour on top of  your hummus and enjoy the added depth of flavour this brings.
