Hummus

During my trip in Lebanon, I discovered the Lebanese kitchen, rich of unknown savours. 

"Hummus" cream is basically made of blended chickpeas and different spices. You usually eat it with Arabic bread, but I also like to eat it with the fat free Tortillas I shared with you. 

Ingredients:

400-500g of canned chickpeas
2 tablespoons of Tahina (sesame paste)
2 lemons (the juice)
2 cloves garlic
olive oil
un teaspoon of ground cumin
salt and pepper
fresh mint leaves


Preparation time:

Prep: 15 min
Total time: 15 min


Directions:



Put all the ingredients (except the mint leaves) into a blender and begin to mix. Add water as needed to get a smooth and creamy puree. 

Adjust the seasoning if necessary and serve the Hummus in a plate. Drizzle olive oil over it and decorate with the mint leaves.
