Make Hummus

  • Add carrots, garlic, lemon juice, red chilli, marmalade or honey.
  • Grind to coarse paste.
  • Add chickpeas, tahini or sesame seeds, oil, salt and siracha.
  • Grind to a smooth and creamy paste. If the mix is too thick to grind, add water from drained Chickpeas instead of plain water. It adds more air to the dip.
  • Serve topped with more EVOO, freshly crushed black pepper, sunflower/pumpkin seeds and pomegranate pearls or just like that. Enjoy with Pita Chips, Naan Bread or Falafels.

To boil chickpeas at home

  • Wash nicely and soak 1 Cup Chickpeas in enough water for about 4-5 hrs.
  • When ready to boil chickpeas, drain water.
  • Add in Indian pressure cooker, and add fresh water 1-2" above chickpea level. Switch on the gas at medium flame.
  • When water boils, and discard the froth that accumulates at top.
  • Add salt as per taste.
  • Cook for 3-4 whistles on medium flame.
  • Once the pressure releases in itself, open the lid and check for doneness. Use as required.
