Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Onions

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring frequently, until they are soft and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Hummus

    In a food processor, combine the caramelized onions, Greek chickpeas, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and water. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Adjust Consistency

    If the hummus is too thick, add a little more water, a tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the hummus to a serving dish, drizzle with olive oil, and serve with warm pita, fresh vegetables, or use it as a spread in sandwiches.
