Recipe information

Make Hummus in just 30m. Served with pita chips

Hummus Preparation

1. Prepare the Chickpeas

Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water.

2. Blend the Ingredients

In a food processor, combine the drained chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and water.

3. Process Until Smooth

Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. If the hummus is too thick, add more water, one tablespoon at a time.

4. Adjust Seasoning

Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning with more salt or lemon juice if desired.

5. Serve

Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and drizzle with olive oil before serving.

Pita Chips Preparation

6. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

7. Cut the Pita Bread

Slice the pita bread into triangles or wedges.

8. Prepare the Pita Chips

In a large bowl, toss the pita triangles with olive oil, salt, and paprika until evenly coated.

9. Bake the Chips

Spread the coated pita triangles in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

10. Cool and Serve

Remove the pita chips from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving with the hummus.
