RFCJ RECIPE ARCHIVE
Posted by : Mimi Hiller Hummus #1 - dairy
Looking for something to set out for a nosh to keep people out of the way while you rush to get dinner on the table? Try this sure pleaser! My version of hummus is not totally authentic, but we love it. HUMMUS 2 cans garbanzo beans, drained 1 teaspoon ground cumin juice of two small lemons 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander 3 to 4 tablespoons yogurt 1/2 teaspoon sugar 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil fresh parsley, chopped Chop garbanzos in food processor for a few seconds, using on-off pulses. Remove about a half cup and reserve. Add lemon juice, yogurt, olive oil, cumin, coriander and sugar, and process till smooth, scraping down sides of bowl. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the reserved chopped garbanzos, combining well with spoon. Taste and correct seasonings. Transfer to serving bowl and garnish with chopped fresh parsley and a dollop of olive oil. Note: I put fresh lemons in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds before juicing them...I get a lot more juice from them this way.
