Tasty Tomato Hummus

This is one of my favourite hummus flavours at the moment but there will be more flavours to follow in the future.

There are a few ingredients on the list but nothing out of the ordinary and one surprising addition that makes all the difference!

Ingredients

1 clove of garlic

1 tin chick peas (drained)

5 sun dried tomatoes (I use the ones in oil as they are softer but you could easily re-hydrate dried ones if you have them)

1tbs tomato puree

1tbs tahini paste

1 lemon/lime – juiced

2tsp apple cider vinegar (the surprising addition)

Salt & pepper

Olive oil

These are the ingredient amounts that I use but feel free to play around and add more or less of them to get your perfect flavour.

What to do

Firstly, I do not chop the garlic separately – just chuck it in the food processor and give it a whizz until it’s finely chopped.

Add in the rest of the ingredients (except the olive oil) and blend.  Scrape down the sides of the processor a couple of times.

Check for consistency and add the olive oil until you like the texture – some like it chunky but I prefer mine a little less thick so I add a little extra.

Serve with crusty bread, crudités or crackers.

Simple, delicious and only five minutes in the making!

Let me know what you think.
