Background

I make hummus regularly and I like to jazz it up according to the season or occasion. This green pea hummus is perfect for Summer parties, picnics and barbecues. It’s very much liked by kids - so ideal for kids parties and lunch boxes (instead of cayenne use paprika for them).

Ingredients

1 cup of green peas (can be frozen)
2 cups of cooked chickpeas, drained
2 tbsp tahini
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
2 pinches of cayenne/paprika
1 tbsp olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tbsp chopped mint leaves
Salt and pepper
Paprika & mint leaves to garnish

Instructions

Steam or boil the peas for 2 minutes, then rinse them in cold water. Drain.
Put all other ingredients in a blender. Blend for a minute, then add the peas. Pulse until you get the desired texture and thickness (add some water to thin it down, if preferred).
Taste it and adjust the seasoning - add more cayenne, mint or lemon juice to your liking.
Transfer the hummus into a serving bowl, then garnish with paprika and mint leaves.
