Roasted Red Pepper Hummus with Garlic Crisps recipe

Stashcook

This is a yummy dip made from chickpeas and roasted red peppers. It's smooth and has little bits of crispy garlic on top. You can eat it with bread or veggies. It's a fun pink color and tastes a little bit spicy and sweet.

Ingredients

1 x (400 g) tin chickpeas
200 g roasted red peppers from a jar
3 cloves of garlic
2 tbsp tahini
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 lemon
3 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp sunflower oil
1/2 tsp sesame seeds

Method

1
Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Drain the roasted red peppers and chop them roughly.
2
Place the chickpeas, roasted red peppers, 2 cloves of garlic, tahini, smoked paprika, and the juice of half a lemon into a food processor.
3
While processing, slowly pour in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add a little water until you reach the desired consistency.
4
Season the hummus with sea salt and black pepper, then transfer to a serving bowl.
5
Thinly slice the remaining clove of garlic.
6
Heat the sunflower oil in a small pan over medium heat. Fry the garlic slices until they are golden and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and let them drain on a paper towel.
7
Sprinkle the crispy garlic and sesame seeds over the hummus before serving.
8
Serve the hummus with warm pita bread, vegetable sticks, or as a spread for sandwiches.
