Hummus Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Chickpeas

    Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water. Set aside.

    In a food processor, add the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic cloves, olive oil, cumin, salt, and water.

Grilled Nan Bread Preparation

  1. 5

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy.

  2. 6

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

  3. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the foamy yeast mixture, yogurt, and olive oil to the flour mixture. Stir until a dough begins to form.

  4. 8

    Knead Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 9

    Let Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  6. 10

    Shape and Grill

    After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten into a disk. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook each piece for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown with grill marks.

  7. 11

    Serve

    Serve the warm grilled naan with the hummus for dipping.
