Hummus recipe (katzens)
1 Servings
Ingredients
Quantity | Ingredient | |
---|---|---|
2 | To 3 medium cloves garlic, | |
Sliced [I use more, but I | ||
Love garlic!] | ||
1 | Large handful parsley | |
2 | Healthy scallions, in 1-inch | |
Pieces | ||
3 | cups | Cooked chick-peas |
6 | tablespoons | Tahini [First I cut down to |
One, now I just use a few | ||
drop | Chinese | |
Sesame oil] | ||
6 | tablespoons | Fresh lemon juice [I use |
Quite a lot more - one or | ||
Two whole lemons, | ||
Squeezed] | ||
¾ | To 1 tsp. salt (to taste) | |
1 | Cayenne and a little cumin, | |
To taste [she says optional, | ||
But I don't!] |
Directions
1) Place garlic, parsley and scallions in a food processor or blender, and mince.
2) Add chick peas, tahini [or oil], lemon juice, and salt, and puree to a thick paste. [I grind the chick peas separately first, it makes life much easier].
3) Season to taste with cayenne and cumin. Transfer to a tightly lidded container and chill.
The green colour can be a bit disconcerting at first, and it does taste a bit different, using sesame oil instead of tahini. But it is still good, I feel.
