RED THAI HUMMUS

Categories Bean

Yield Makes 16 servings 2 TBsp (30 mL) each

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 can (19 oz/540 mL) chickpeas (garbanzo beans) rinsed.
1/4 cup (60 mL) Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tuscan Italian Dressing
1/4 cup (60 mL) cilantro
2 cloves garlic, peeled
2 Tablespoons (30 mL) lime juice
1 teaspoon (5 mL) red curry paste

Steps:

Process all ingredients in food processor until smooth

Tips:

For a creamy hummus, use canned chickpeas that have been rinsed and drained. You can also use dried chickpeas, but they will need to be soaked overnight and cooked before using.
To make the hummus extra smooth, peel the chickpeas before blending. This will remove the skins, which can make the hummus gritty.
Use a food processor or high-powered blender to get the smoothest hummus possible. A regular blender may not be able to blend the chickpeas completely.
Add the tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and cumin to the food processor or blender along with the chickpeas. Blend until the hummus is smooth and creamy.
Season the hummus to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, chili powder, or cayenne pepper, to taste.
Serve the hummus with pita bread, crackers, vegetables, or chips.

Conclusion:

Thai hummus is a delicious and flavorful twist on the classic hummus recipe. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed as a dip, spread, or sandwich filling. With its unique blend of Thai flavors, this hummus is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
