Sesame Hummus



Hummus is one of the easiest dips to make. I usually make sure i have a can of chick peas on my top shelf at all times. This time i decided to add a little sesame flavour to the hummus to give it something a little different.

Start by
  • draining a half the juice out of a can of chickpeas. (keep half so that it is viscous enough)
  • adding chickpeas and the juice to a container suitable for a blender
then add
  • 2 tbs of lemon juice
  • 2 tbs of olive oil
  • 1 tsp of sesame oil (very strong stuff so watch out)
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1/2 tsp of salt
  • 1/2 tsp of black pepper
Now blend that all together til its a nice consistency. If its too thick, add a little bit of olive oil or lemon juice...but make sure to adjust it to your taste.

Now once you have it tasting almost how you want it, put it in a bowl to serve.

To give a nice look sprinkle on some
  • black sesame seeds
  • paprika
  • cayenne pepper (spicy)
Now enjoy with some pita and friends.
