Description

Tangy, garlicky, heavenly hummus! Super easy, super yummy.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Sweet Red Peppers, Roasted(jarred Or Roast Your Own)
  • 2 cans (15oz) Chickpeas, Rinsed And Drained Well(alternatively, Use One Can Of Chickpeas, One Can Of White Beans Such As Great Northern Or Cannellinni)
  • ⅓ cups Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 3 Tablespoons Tahini(sesame Seed Paste)
  • 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Peeled
  • 1-¼ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Red Curry Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Cumin
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Coriander
  • ½ teaspoons Freshly Cracked Black Pepper
  • Optional Garnishes: Olive Oil And Paprika

Preparation

Place the roasted peppers in food processor. Add the remaining ingredients (through black pepper) and process until blended and very fluffy, about 4 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl halfway through.

Scrape into a container, drizzle with a bit of olive oil and dust with paprika.

A few notes..hummus is traditionally made with garbanzo beans (aka chickpeas). This recipe calls for two cans, and I only had one can on hand, which certainly wasn’t going to stop me! So I subbed in one can of white beans instead, and it is still delicious. I still like the taste/texture of chickpeas, though. I think if you used all white beans with no chickpeas involved, it might be a bit too runny.

As for the roasted red peppers, I used bottled…because I was feelin’ lazy and I only had one fresh red pepper on hand. If you have fresh red peppers, you can certainly roast your own. (Simply broil them about 4 inches from the heat until skins are blistered, rotating and turning until all sides are blackened. Immediately place the peppers in a bowl, cover, and let stand for 15 minutes or so. Then take the peel off and discard the blackened skin and remove stems and seeds. And you are ready to go!)
