Fantastic Hummus!

This hummus or RUMMUS as it’s called (Rolfie from the States’ special hummus) is really a very delicious version of the Arabic dip. I am always up for a breakaway from the norm and the onion and parsley give it a great texture and freshness. Thanks Rolfie!

2 tins chickpeas

2 lemons – juice

1 red onion, finely chopped

1 handful parsley, finely chopped

5 cloves garlic

1 cup olive oil

1 T paprika

Blitz the chickpeas, oil, lemon juice and garlic together. Add the finely chopped onion and parsely and season well with salt and pepper.

Place into 2 bowls (one for the fridge and one to devour).

Glug a little oil onto the top and sprinkle with the paprika. Leave to stand for at least 1/2 an hour – this is for the paprika to dissolve into the oil – so pretty.

Eat with thin toasty pita bread. Enjoy!
