“Humus”
Ingredients: 1 Cup of dry Chickpeas soaked over night in water (or a can)
Juice of ½ Lemon
2 Crushed Garlic cloves
1 tsp Salt
2 Green Olives
2 TBSP Raw Tehina (sesame paste)
2 Green Olives
2 TBSP Olive Oil
Preparation: Boil the chickpeas for about 20 minutes. Drain and save the water. Blend all with emersion blender while the chickpeas are still hot (add a little of the hot water if you want it to be smoother). Serve and consume the same day, best if served warm, in a pita or in a plate with olive oil and sprinkled smoked paprika, fresh parsley, and or toasted pine nuts.
Some may use roughly crushed chick peas or beans in the mix. |
