Preparation
Step 1
Put the garbanzo beans and garlic in a food processor.
Step 2
In order to make the hummus as healthy as possible, do NOT use tahini or a lot of oil – use lemon, stock/water, and a touch of olive oil as liquid.
Step 3
Squeeze the entire lemon and give the food processor a whirl – it will probably be too thick.
Step 4
If it’s too thick, put a few tablespoons of stock or water and blend again – is it thin enough yet?
Step 5
Repeat with more stock and/or lemon juice until it’s thin enough but BEFORE the taste is off balance (too watery or lemony).
Step 6
Finish it off with a sprinkle of the spices and a tablespoon or two of olive oil.
Step 7
Keep tasting and adding these ingredients until the texture and taste are to your liking.
