A unique and delicious spin on traditional chickpea hummus with garlic, spices, lemon and turmeric.
Share:
Ingredients
- 3 1/2 cups soaked and cooked chickpeas/garbanzo beans (1 1/2 cups dry) OR two cans
- 1 cup peanuts, roasted & unsalted (shelled)
- 8 cloves roasted garlic
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice or more to taste
- 1/3 cup reserved liquid from cooking chickpeas or from the can or more if needed
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3/4 teaspoon cumin
- 3/4 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor. Pulse the ingredients for about 60 seconds, then process until smooth. Taste the mixture and add more salt or lemon juice to taste, blend again. If the texture seems too thick, add some of the reserved water from the cooking liquid or chickpea can. Continue to process until desired consistency is reached.
- Serve with warm pita, crackers or crudites for dipping. Note: for a smoother, fluffier hummus, you can peel the chickpeas before you begin. Take careful note not to serve this to anybody with a peanut allergy; it looks like regular hummus and could easily be mistaken, so label accordingly!
