There’s not
much to say about humus really, a staple of many many parts of the world as
wide a mix as there are recipes for the stuff. So why am I posting a recipe
then? Well firstly, I really like this one, the harissa adds the right amount
of spice and with a good extra virgin olive oil it produces something simple
yet extremely more-ish . Secondly and much like yesterday’s post humus if one of
those things most people buy in a little pot from the supermarket and again, is
much better when it’s made fresh.
I go so far as
to say that Humus is even easier to make than pesto also, like the pesto this
recipe relies on a food processor. I use canned chickpeas but you can make this
even cheaper by buying dried, soaking overnight and then cooking, really don’t
have the time for that honestly
Ingredients
1 Can of
Chickpeas
1 clove of
garlic pressed
2 tablespoons
of harissa paste
3 tablespoon of
extra virgin olive oil
A Squeeze of
Lemon juice
Pinch of sea salt
Sprinkle of
Paprika
Put all of the
ingredients except the paprika into a food processor and pulse until blended.
Next taste, add more seasoning or lemon if it’s not right add more oil if it’s
too thick for your preference. Erm that’s it really, dust with paprika and then
serve it how you like it, in this case some veg and flatbreads.
Couldn't be
simpler eh? No reason not to really !
