I loved the basil hummus that Philip Pantelides shared on Cookpad. His basil flavoured hummus suits my taste better than classic hummus, but it was a little too heavy for me. So I am now writing the altered recipe for myself.

1 can (400 g)Chickpeas *drained and rinsed
1 clovesGarlic
Juice of 1 large Lemon
3 tablespoonsTahini
Salt & Black Pepper
2-3 tablespoonsCold Water
1 handfulBasil Leaves
Ground Paprika
Olive Oil

Cooking Instructions

1

Place Chickpeas and Garlic in the food processor, and blend. Then add Lemon Juice, Tahini, Salt & Pepper, and blend until smooth.
2

Add Cold Water gradually until the paste turns soft as required. Finally add Basil Leaves and blend as you like.
3

Sprinkle some Ground Paprika and drizzle Olive Oil over and enjoy. *My big 'thank you' to Philip Pantelides for his hummus recipe.

It is so easy to make hummus right at home, in about 5 minutes. This dip makes the perfect snack with some pita chips, veggies or pretzels. You could also make hummus toast or use it as a yummy sandwich/wrap spread or even thin it out with more water and use it as a salad dressing or toss it over pasta. Recipe source : gimmesomeoven.com

I was inspired by the Pioneer Woman’s Roasted red pepper hummus and thought I could change it up a little.

I love hummus! I used a lot of different recipes, but this one has been the most consistent and with plenty of flavor! This is a a basic recipe to which you can add different ingredients for different flavors, like roasted red pepper.

Addition of zucchini doesn't alter the taste but makes the hummus much lower in calories :)

This is my take on hummus. I use the base of Alton Browns recipe and add a bunch of ingredients to it. I add different things and amounts for every batch.

Had a BBQ at my cousin Nigel Cole's house. A good teacher and and even better cook. This is one of his dishes.

This is a delicious hummus cocktail made with oregano and three types of olives. Quick, easy and cost effective :) The step of whipping the tahini with the lemon juice helps to make the hummus smooth and light.

Hummus Hummus

A classic recipe for hummus. Tastes better than anything store bought or restaurant made.Making great hummus involves a lot of blending in the food processor. In the following steps, you’ll see we take a few ingredients at a time and blend them very well before moving on to the next. The order of ingredients is also important for the best result.A lot of places use more cumin than this recipe, which is not something I prefer as a main flavor— feel free to add more or less for your tastes.Also, it has a great shelf life in the refrigerator, so I make a lot at a time. If you want to make less, just halve the ingredients.
