Alesia:

Hummus is an appetizer made of chickpeas, crushed into a puree. This is a dish of eastern food. Except chickpeas it includes olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, pepper, tahini (sesame paste). Serve hummus with pita or corn tortillas. Hummus can be bought in the supermarket, but it is much more interesting to prepare a snack yourself. It is recommended to all fans of the oriental cuisine, as well as vegetarians!

Step by step recipe description:

Rinse chickpeas and soak for several hours or better overnight. Then drain the water, pour fresh water to chickpeas and boil for 1 hour. Chickpeas should be soft. Pour the broth into a separate bowl, we'll use it later.

If you don't have tahini, it can be easyli replaced. Fry sesame on a dry frying pan to cream color and grind in a blender or coffee grinder.

Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and mix.

Blend boiled chickpea with dill, parsley, paprika, cumin, coriander (ammount - to your taste) gradually adding the chickpea broth until desired consistency.
