Hummus and crudités

Method

  1. Drain the chickpeas, then rinse them well.
  2. Put the chickpeas, tahini, the juice of the lemon, the peeled garlic and half a teaspoon of salt in a blender or food processor with 3 tablespoons of cold water. Blend for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth.
  3. Add more water a spoonful at a time, blending between each, until the hummus is soft and creamy. Taste and add more salt or lemon if it needs it.
  4. Peel the carrots and cut them into batons. Cut the cucumber into sticks and the red pepper into strips.
  5. Spoon the hummus into a bowl and set it out with the vegetable sticks for dipping.

Tip A longer blend gives smoother hummus. If the chickpeas still feel grainy, let the machine run a minute more and add a spoonful of water.
