Recipe
Serves 8
For the hummus:
2 yellow onions
14 oz. (400g) chickpeas, drained
2 cloves garlic
2 tbsp. lemon juice
2 ice cubes
6.7 oz. (190g) tahini
water, as required
For the spicy chickpeas:
14 oz. (400g) chickpeas, drained
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp. hot paprika
1 tsp. ground cumin
How to Prepare
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the onions, place on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tbsp. of olive oil and roast for 30-40 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
In an ovenproof dish, combine the chickpeas, 1 tbsp. olive oil, garlic, paprika and cumin. Season with salt and pepper, and roast in the oven alongside the onion for 20-30 minutes, until crispy, then remove and set aside to cool.
Make the hummus by placing the cooled onions, chickpeas, garlic cloves, lemon juice, ice cubes, tahini, 1 tbsp. olive oil and 1 tsp. salt into the bowl of a food processor. Process the mixture until it starts to become smooth. If the hummus is too thick, add a splash of water to reach desired consistency.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and top with the spicy chickpeas.
Serving suggestion: serve with a garnish of chopped dill.
