Ingredients
- 240 g chickpeas (400g / 14 oz can drained)- keep the chickpea water also called aquafaba
- 4 tablespoons aquafaba (chickpea water or regular water, more if you want to thin the hummus)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (I use extra virgin olive oil)
- 3 tablespoons tahini (sesame seed paste)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice (juice from half a lemon)
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 pinch salt and black pepper
- 3 tablespoons caramelised onions (or onion chutney, ready made is fine)
Instructions
- Add the chickpeas and chickpea water (or fresh water) to the jug of a food processor or blender.
- Then add the olive oil, tahini and lemon juice.
- Next, add the spices and garlic, then season with salt and pepper.
- Add the caramelised onion (or onion chutney) and blend until smooth.
- If you would prefer it thinner, add more water and blend again.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- You can thin with water instead of aquafaba (chickpea water).
- Once you have made your hummus, spoon it into an airtight container and keep it in the fridge. You can store it for 3-4 days.
