Ingredients
- 15 ounces chickpeas drained, or 1 ½ cups cooked chickpeas
- ½ teaspoon baking soda for canned chickpeas only
- ¼ cup Tahini
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice adjust to your tastes
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¾ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¾ teaspoon salt to taste
- 1 pinch cracked pepper to taste
- 1 medium avocado ripe, cored and peeled
- 2 tablespoons water ice cold
- 1 pinch paprika for serving
Instructions
- Add chickpeas into a small pot. Cover with water and add baking soda. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-high and let boil until soft, about 20-25 minutes.
- Drain chickpeas in a fine mesh strainer under cool running water until water runs clear, about 20 seconds.
- Transfer chickpeas to a food processor with tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, salt, pepper and avocado. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides with a spatula when the hummus gets stuck to the walls of the bowl. Process once more. With the food processor running, drizzle in 2 tablespoons of the ice cold water. Process until smooth and creamy.
- Taste test and adjust flavours if necessary: extra pinch of salt or cumin, or a little extra lemon juice.
- To serve, drizzle with olove oil and sprinkle with a light dusting of paprika.
Notes
- Tips:
- If your hummus is too thick if using a thick tahini, blend 1-2 extra tablespoons of cold water into your hummus until reaching your desired consistency.
- Don't forget to boil them without pre-soaking and add a pinch of baking soda for the smoothest results!
- If your hummus is too thick if using a thick tahini, blend 1-2 extra tablespoons of cold water into your hummus until reaching your desired consistency.
