Instead of trying something new today I wanted to instead try make something that we all enjoy at home. Hummus is a staple in our fridge. We all eat it as a quick snack with some crackers or with pitta bread and vegetables as a lunch. Pip is an especially big fan and if he could he would probably eat this for every meal.
As a way of bringing him closer to his food I decided it would be fun to involve him in the process of making this recipe. It was good for him to see what the ingredients look like and how the flavors combine as well as having a sense of pride that he made our lunch.
For this recipe we used
2 x 400g tins of chickpeas.
2 tbsp tahini
2 cloves of garlic
juice and zest of half a lemon
4 tbsp of water
4 tbsp of olive oil.
salt and pepper to taste.
The Method is as simple as throwing everything into a food processor and pulsing it until it is the desired consistency. We went for nice and smooth today.
We ate it with pitta bread chips and vegetables. It was delicious and now I know how simple it was to make it will be a regular recipe here and possibly save me allot of money yey!
Bon Appetit xx
