Lemony Hummus in 2 ways

This fluffy and tasty hummus is very easy to make.

How about some hummus and oven grilled vegetables for an Easter brunch?

Ingredients for this hummus

Simply put the following ingredients in a blender and blend it well.

However I reccomand not to add everything at the same time.

Start with grinding roasted sesame seeds till they become like powder.

If you add the canned chickpea and its water at the end ,blending is mush easier and can be done mush faster.

60 g sesame seeds (whole/roasted) or Tahini

1tsp salt( jod salt)

1/2tsp caraway seeds

1/2tsp cumin powder　

Juice of 1 large lemon = 60 ml

1 tsp fresh garlic

400 ml canned chickpeas with chickpea water (Edeka’s )

This consistency is not yet creamy.

Continue blending.

I didn’t use high speed blender that means it takes at least 5mins.

When it is creamy enough, it is ready to serve.

It is also tasty when it’s chilled in the fridge for a while.

Topping

EV olive oil

Pinch of smark (spice)

A pinch of black pepper

This hummus is served with some grilled vegetables and bread.

(Oven grilled with a drizzle of olive oil )

Paprika and carrots 220°C -25mins

Paprika and carrots 220°C 25mins

Asparagus ( olive oil,salt and pepper)- 5mins

Pickled beets and spicy pepper

Strawberries

Romaine lettuce

Maple mustard dressing　

Note

Hummus is cheap if you buy ready-made hummus, but they often contain quite a lot of oil.

Making your own is fun as it is easy and can be flavoured to your liking.

And it reduces unnecessary oil dramatically.

If you don’t have time to grill veggies.

You can always serve hummus with veggie sticks:)

This is the hummus made for the 3rd June’s WS.

I used Tahini instead of whole sesame seeds. It works just as well.
