EQUIPMENT (click pictures for details)
Ingredients
- 1 pc red bell pepper
- 250 gr drained chickpeas
- 10 gr tahini paste
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ pc fresh lemon juice
- 1 pc garlic clove
- Pepper and salt, Cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Burn the skin of the pepper under a broiler/grill or with a blowtorch. Once the skin is burned, wrap it in a plastic bag and wait for 10 minutes. The skin will remove very easily under running water or in a bowl of water.
- Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas. Simmer them in a little water for 10 minutes and remove the skins. The hummus will be smoother after blending.
- Combine the sweet pepper, the chickpeas and all other ingredients in a food processor and blend until silky smooth.
- Adjust the thickness by adding extra olive oil or some water and season to taste with salt, pepper and cayenne pepper.
- Serve with vegetable sticks or tortilla chips.
