Curry Hummus
I always have a bowl of hummus in my fridge! This Mediterranean plant-based dip is delicious, healthy, nutritious, and versatile. You can experiment with different ingredients and spices, and make different hummus flavors, as I did in this Curry Hummus recipe. You will never get bored of eating hummus! Plus, you can also use it in other dishes, as I did in this Curried Chickpea Wrap.
Ingredients
- 15 oz Chickpeas 1 3/4 cups, save liquid
- ¼ cup Lemon Juice about one large lemon – fresh is best!
- ¼ cup Tahini well stirred, or best you can!
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1-4 tbsp Aquafaba liquid in chickpea can or liquid beans were cooked in
- 2 tbsp Curry powder
- ½ tsp Cumin ground
- ½ tsp Salt
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine the tahini and lemon juice and process for about 1 – 2 minutes, scraping the sides to the bottom of the bowl when needed. This is a little secret of make this hummus smoother nd creamier!
- Add the garlic clove, cumin, and a 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the whipped tahini and lemon juice. You may add the turmeric, if desired (see notes). Process for about a minute, scraping the sides to the bottom of the bowl when needed.
- Cook the beans (see notes) or open up a can of beans. Pour some of its liquid (aquafaba) into a bowl and set it aside. Rise and drain the beans. Add half of the chickpeas to the food processor and process for about a minute. Scrape sides and bottom of the bowl, then add remaining chickpeas and process until thick and quite smooth – about 1 – 2 minutes.
- If the hummus is too thick or is still chunky, add aquafaba a tablespoon at a time until smooth and of desired consistency.
- Salt if needed. Enjoy!
