Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 425 grams Chickpeas (canned or cooked from dried)
- 100 grams Sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil)
- 60 grams Tahini
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 clove Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil (from the sun-dried tomato jar, if available)
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- Pita bread or vegetables (for serving)
Instructions
Drain and rinse the chickpeas if using canned. If cooking from dried chickpeas, ensure they've been soaked and cooked until tender.
Reserve a few sun-dried tomatoes for garnish, then roughly chop the rest.
Add the chickpeas, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, water, cumin, and salt to a food processor or high-speed blender.
Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl. If the hummus is too thick, add 1-2 more tablespoons of water or olive oil, one at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or lemon juice if needed.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and smooth out the top with the back of a spoon.
Chop the reserved sun-dried tomatoes into small pieces and scatter them over the top. Optionally, sprinkle smoked paprika and drizzle a little additional olive oil over the hummus for garnish.
Serve with warm pita bread, fresh vegetables, or crackers. Enjoy!
