Hummus

8 ingredients
7 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) can chickpeas, drained (reserve juice for low-fat version)
  • 23 cup tahini
  • 12 cup lemon juice
  • 7 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 34 teaspoon cumin
  • olive (to garnish)
  • olive oil

Directions

  1. 1
    Place chick peas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt and cumin in food processor (note, unless you have a very good blender dont use it, this recipe will burn out the motor if you arent extremely careful).
  2. 2
    Mix until smooth.
  3. 3
    The hummus may be a bit thick, so thin it out by adding olive oil or liquid from the can of chick peas.
  4. 4
    Using the liquid from the can makes it a low fat hummus recipe, however the olive oil is my preference.
  5. 5
    Dry off the olives and arrange on top of the hummus.
  6. 6
    Refrigerate.
  7. 7
    When you're ready, serve with pita bread.
