Humus

Isn’t it almost happy hour now??? I think, at least somewhere in the world, it must be… 😉

What if we cooked a yummy humus with a well balanced taste of spice? Be carefull, it is so easy to cook and so good, that you might fall for it again and again…

So it’s true that very often we suggest Humus with blinis or grilled bread, but the best combination is probably with pita bread and oriental meatballs (beef or lamb and a lot of coriander and fresh mint!!). You can also eat it as the sauce for your veggie dips: carrots, cauliflower, cucumber, radish … Perfect for a healthy, tasty savory snack!

To cook this recipe, you will need a blender or a Thermomix. Also be aware that if you cook dry chick peas, you’ll have to start the recipe the day before you plan to eat it.

Now shall we? The recipe, Chef !
