Hummus

I have grown eating Hummus all my life.Teamed with plain khubbus, julienne d vegetable sticks or sandwiched in a Shawarma, the taste of it has now lingered onto Satish's (hubby) palate as well.

Ingredients:

1 cup of chickpeas (soaked overnight and boiled)
1/4 cup liquid from boiled chickpeas
3-5 tablespoons lemon juice (depending on taste)
1 1/2 tablespoons tahini/ sesame seed paste (you could totally do without this as well)
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil

Blend all the ingredients except olive oil until thoroughly mixed and smooth. Transfer to a bowl and create a depression in the center and tip in the olive oil. Serve with khubbus/ pita bread or even Chapathy.

  1. Pl do not do away with Tahini. That is what lends that distinct flavour to this dish.
