Ingredients

  • 2 Italian red peppers
  • 500 g chickpeas cooked
  • 1-2 garlic cloves crushed
  • ¼ cup tahini
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Cut the red peppers in half, and roast them for about 15 minutes or until the skin browns and the pepper is softened.
  • Leave to cool and remove the skin.
  • Using a food processor, add the chickpeas, tahini, garlic cloves, smoked paprika, lemon juice, and olive oil.
  • Add the peeled roasted red peppers and blend all the ingredients until you have a smooth hummus. Add a little bit of cold water if it's too thick to get your desired consistency.
  • Transfer the hummus to a plate, garnish with fresh mint and sesame seeds, and drizzle some extra olive oil.
  • Serve with your favorite veggies, pita chips, or crackers.

Notes

  • Drizzle some chili oil on top to add a spicy kick.
