Sundried Tomato Hummus
An absolute explosion of flavor and sensation. This will be a hit at any gathering. So easy to whip up using the food processor. For best results, refrigerate for a couple hours after making, just so the flavors can mingle a little. Although, it's excellent anytime!
Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas drained (1/4 chickpea water, reserved)
- 1/4 cup chickpea water
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/3 cup sundried tomatoes jarred – soaked in oil
- 2 tablespoons oil from the sundried tomato jar
Garnish
- 2 sundried tomatoes diced
- 5-6 chickpeas whole
- 1/2 `cup fresh basil leaves sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- pinch black pepper
Instructions
- Assemble all of the ingredients (except for the garnishes) in the bowl of a food processor. Whir until you have a smooth hummus.
- Turn hummus out onto a serving plate. I like to draw wavy lines in the hummus so the garnish olive oil pools in the crevices. Garnish with diced sundried tomatoes, whole chickpeas, fresh basil leaves, olive oil and a pinch of pepper.
- Serve with chips, crackers or little toasts.
