Hummus (/ ˈ h ʊ m ə s /, / ˈ h ʌ m ə s /; Arabic: حُمُّص , 'chickpeas'; full Arabic name: ḥummuṣ bi-ṭ-ṭaḥīna Arabic: حمص بالطحينة , 'chickpeas in tahini') is a dip, spread, or savory dish made from cooked, mashed chickpeas blended with tahini, lemon juice, and garlic.
Instructions to make Hummus:
- Wash and soak the chickpeas overnight or at least for 6-8 hours.
- Boil for 50 mins to 1 hour till it gets cooked and turns soft (don't pressure cook it). Let it cool and then take out the cover/ chilka of the chickpea in order to get a smooth hummus.
- While the chickpeas are boiling, prepare the tahini - dry roast the sesame seeds in a pan, it will hardly take even 2 mins, be careful don't over brown it…take it out in a plate and let it cool a bit. Then in a mixer grinder jar, grind the sesame seeds first and then add olive oil and mix again your fresh tahini is ready.
- Your freshly prepared tahini will look like this.
- Peel the garlic, juice the lemon, grind the black pepper and Cummin if your are using freshly grounded.
- Now in a big size mixer jar, add in the garlic, tahini, black pepper powder, Cummin powder, lemon juice, salt and give it a quick mix till the garlic are roughly grounded.
- Then add the chickpeas and add water as required little by little so that your hummus doesn't become too runny. If your mixer grinder is not powerful then add the chickpeas in two or three parts so that it becomes a smooth paste and you can grind it without any problem, scrap the jar in between. It will hardly take 10-15 minutes depending upon the mixer grinder or the food processor being used. Your HUMMUS is ready. Garnish it and serve it with your favourite kebabs,breads etc. to your family.
