hummus recipe | 2 ways easy hummus dip recipe with detailed photo and video recipe. basically a spread or dip recipe from middle east cuisine which is also popularly known as hummus bi tahini in arabic language. it is mainly prepared with cooked chickpeas and blended with tahini, garlic and olive oil. it is typically served as a dip to crisp falafel recipe, but can also be used with potato chips or wedges.
as previously mentioned there are several variations and flavours can be added to the plain or basic hummus. one such variation is the coriander flavoured hummus. however in this recipe i have added slit jalapeño which brings the spice and tangy flavour to it. the other variations include the sun dried tomato and basil flavoured, which is my personal favourite. apart from these the other classic variation, which is typically found common in turkish restaurants is harrissa and mint hummus. it is an ideal spread for pita bread served with falafel filling.
while there isn’t much complications to the recipe, yet some basic tips for a perfect hummus dip recipe. firstly, make sure to soak and pressure cook chickpea till they are soft, alternatively use canned chickpea. also, adjust the spiciness to your tastebud by increasing or skipping jalapeno. lastly, do not add any water while blending, add oil to get smooth consistency.
