Background

When I make roast dinner I always put a bulb of garlic on the oven shelf, as roasted garlic can really jazz up salads, dips, sandwich creams, marinades and so on. This home-made hummus with roasted garlic is a good example. It’s so easy to make, takes only 5 minutes - and much cheaper, healthier and tastier than anything you can get in a food store. Serve it as a dip or, if you add more water, the thinner sauce is perfect for falafels, salads, skewers.

Ingredients

1 tin (400g) of chickpeas, drained
Juice and grated zest of 1 lemon
2 Tbsp tahini
6-8 cloves of roasted/grilled/barbecued garlic cloves
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp salt
½ tsp paprika
1 small handful of parsley leaves
1 Tbsp olive oil
To garnish: parsley leaves, paprika, cumin, olive oil

Instructions

Put all ingredients in a blender. Season with salt and pepper, pulse, then add enough water for the paste to become thick and creamy. Add more water of you want to serve as a sauce or dressing.
Transfer the hummus into a serving bowl, decorate with parsley, drizzle with olive oil and dust with paprika or ground cumin.

Tips

Spicy it by using cayenne instead of paprika (or half-half for a mild version)!
