Orange Hummus
Hellooo, this is Clodagh.
this blog is looking sort of bare, so i’ll post the recipe for what you may have tasted last night, orange hummus:
*a tin of cooked chick-peas [or the cheaper option, a cup of dried chickpeas, soaked over night and simmered for 30 mins or so until soft, don't throw out the water you cooked 'em in]
* third of a teaspoon some or all of the following;
Cumin, Ginger, Mustard Powder, Tumeric, Salt, Cayenne
* couple cloves garlic, minced
*dash of Cider Vinegar
* essential: small glass of orange juice, or the juice of an orange
get all the above and whizz in a blender, if it’s too solid, -slowly- add some of the water you cooked the chickers in, taste and add what spice you think is lacking, i like the zingy taste the cider vinegar adds.
will keep for 2-3 days in the fridge.
eat with tortilla chips or on bread or whatever you’re having yourself.
the original recipe has tahini in it, it’s really good for you but i think it tastes like sellotape so that is why i omit it.
