Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

For the Curried Cauliflower
1/2 cauliflower, washed, dried and broken into very small florets
2 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp cumin
1 pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1 pinch of cinnamon
1 sprig of thyme, leaves only
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
sea salt
For the Hummus
1 2/3 cups (13oz/400g) canned chickpeas, drained (reserve the liquid)
2 tbsp tahini
juice of 1/4 lemon
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch of sea salt
To serve
4 slices of sourdough bread
1 scallion (spring onion), chopped
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Start by making the curried cauliflower. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C/gas mark 7). In a bowl, toss the cauliflower with the spices, thyme leaves and olive oil, mixing well. Transfer to an ovenproof dish and roast in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until lightly brown on top. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
  • Place all the hummus ingredients into a food processor or use a handheld blender to process until smooth. If necessary, use a little of the reserved chickpea liquid to thin the mixture to a smooth purée. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • To serve, spread the hummus on the bread and top with the curried cauliflower. Sprinkle the scallion (spring onion) on top and drizzle with the olive oil.

Here are some tips for making the best curried hummus:

* Use high-quality ingredients. This means using fresh chickpeas, tahini, and spices. * Don't be afraid to experiment with different curry powders. There are many different types of curry powders available, each with its own unique flavour profile. * Be sure to cook the chickpeas until they are very soft. This will make them easier to mash and will give the hummus a smooth texture. * Don't over-process the hummus. Over-processed hummus can become gritty and oily. * Serve the hummus with your favorite accompaniments, such as pita bread,野菜, or crackers.

Conclusion:

Curried hummus is a delicious and versatile dish that is a new taste sensation. It can be used as a spread, adip, or a main course. It is also a great way to use up leftover chickpeas. If you are looking for a new and easy recipe to try, this curried hummus is a great option.
