I am totally in love with hummus. It’s my new favorite food. Nice and creamy, not too heavy but filling… its just amazingg! I’ve been eating it for lunch and dinner for the past two days and just cant seem to get enough.
I wanna try all the flavors someday. Right now my favs are supremely spicy hummus, luscious lemon, greek olive, and roasted red pepper. What’s yours?

@ eating everyday.
I love Humus myself but wouldnt eat it everday.
Some days, i’ll buy Turkish bread, heat it on the tawa, apply olive oil on both sides and cut it into bit sized pieces. Then serve the hot bread with cold humus, zucchini and eggplant dippings. Mmm yummy

Re: Hummus.. yummy!
I've been trying cooking humus mysell but I have never been able to get the real taste of it - like the one at Sainsburys. Does anyone have a better idea?
Re: Hummus.. yummy!
Why not just get the readymade stuff? Sabra and achlava are very very good!
Re: Hummus.. yummy!
I am in Pakistan and these are not available here. They sell it at Nando's but thats too costly.

The sainsbury's one is the best out of all supermarkets. How do u make it?
Re: Hummus.. yummy!
Mujhay kahan aata hia pakana, yeh hi to maloom kar raha ho. Aur yahan Pakistan may to sainsbury's nahee hia na.
Re: Hummus.. yummy!
Its not too difficult to make actually. Just boil some sabat channay (chick peas)....and then blitz them in a blender, turning them into a paste. Add drops of olive oil to smoothen the consistency, and some lemon juice. When you have the right consistency, thats your basic hummus right there. Then you can add whatever you want in order to tastify it further.....like salt, black pepper, more lemon, more oil etc..

Ok Thanks a lot. I will try again.

GARLIC man, GARLIC!!! U also need some tahina / tahini, sesame seed paste.
Basic Hummus doesn't have garlic or tahini paste :) just olive oil, lemon juice and chick peas
Re: Hummus.. yummy!
^ Aah, that would explain the blandness of some humous in restaurants. But the sainsbury's one DOES have garlic and tahini paste, its the best! Mostar bhai and i think thats the tastiest.
Re: Hummus.. yummy!
Can someone help me? When i try to puree the chickpeas in a blender or a processor, it turns out lumpy. When i put a little bit of water in, it gets too runny. How does one puree into a smooth consistency without being runny? Is the jug blender better or the flatter processor?
Re: Hummus.. yummy!
rupay shouldnt u add olive oil instead of water to make it a creamier consistency?
Re: Hummus.. yummy!
Yeah, this is after i put in some oil, then i don't want to put more in, in case it makes it TOO oily. Even with oil its too lumpy, then with a bit of water it goes too runny. How to make it nice n smooth and thick?
