Houmous

Hummus also spelled hommus or houmous, is a traditional Middle Eastern dip made from blended chickpeas, tahini (a paste of sesame seeds), olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. Its origins trace back to the Levant region, with historical claims from Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine. The creamy, flavourful spread has been enjoyed for centuries and is celebrated for its rich taste and nutritional benefits.
Ingredients
350g canned (cooked) chick peas
90g 5 tbsp lemon juice
50g 4 tbsp olive oil
44g 1/3 cup sesame seeds
1 tsp salt
½ tsp paprika
70g 4 tbsp water
X1 bulb garlic if roasting (x3 raw garlic cloves)
Trim dried roots off of the garlic bulb so it sits upright in the ramekin. Then chop off the top of the garlic bulb off ensuring you keep the hull of the garlic intact. Roast garlic bulb for 20 min at a 200°c. Remove from the oven and let the oil and garlic bulb cook before handling.
Start by adding all your ingredients to your blender or food processor.
Chickpeas, lemon juice, only 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, sesame seeds, paprika, salt and squeeze out the cooled roasted garlic leaving a little to garnish.
Start your engine on low speed then increase to a medium to high speed for 3 to 4 min, add 2 to 3 tbsp of water and an additional tbsp of olive oil. Once you conduct a taste test you can add the remaining oil.
Add in another tbsp of water if you find the consistency isn’t resembling a paste.
Turn off the processor and check the consistency along with a taste test.
Turn on the processor for a further 4 min and add the last tbsp of olive oil if you with to increase the taste.
Check for taste and consistency and up the level of water if its too stiff and salt or lemon juice to taste.
Once happy with the taste and consistency scoop into a ramekin and garnish with continental parsley, chunks of roasted garlic, sea salt flakes and some paprika.
Great to dip vegetables, Turkish breads and or crackers.
