Author: Annie's Supper Club
Recipe type: Appetiser
Cuisine: Middle Eastern
Serves: 4
- 1 can of chickpeas - drained & rinsed
- 40ml fresh lemon juice
- 65ml good quality olive oil
- 1tsp ground cumin
- ¼tsp ground cayenne
- 1 clove of garlic, minced and pasted
- ½ tsp sea salt
- Fresh parsley & olive oil to garnish (optional)
- Place 30ml of the lemon juice and the olive oil in the Vitamix container. Add the cumin, cayenne, salt and garlic. Add the drained chickpeas.
- Place 30ml of the lemon juice and the olive oil in the Vitamix container. Add the cumin, cayenne, salt and garlic. Add the drained chickpeas.
- Set the dial to Variable 1 then turn the Vitamix on and slowly increase the speed to 10.
- If you want a really smooth hummus you can use High but I tend to keep the speed on 10 as I don't want a puree but a hummus with a bit of character. Use the tamper if necessary to push the ingredients down.
- Turn the machine off and taste - add the rest of the lemon juice and adjust the seasoning to suit your tastes.
- To serve I like to sprinkle with fresh, finely chopped parsley and a drizzle of olive oil.
