Irresistible Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Recipe - Easy Homemade Hummus
We're Adam and Jo from inspiredtaste.net
and welcome to our kitchen
we're making our red pepper hummus recipeits creamy smooth
and so much better than store-bought
Today we’re roasting our own peppers, but jarred, store-bought peppers work really well, too.
To speed things up, we cut the peppers into large flat pieces.
Then we place them skin-side up on a baking sheet.
Slide them under a hot broiler
and cook until the skin has charred.
Throw the roasted peppers into a dish with a lid or food-safe bag...
and set aside to steam. Now on to the hummus.
Combine lemon juice and tahini in a food processor.
This is actually homemade tahini (look for our recipe on Inspired Taste).
If you don’t want to make your own, simply use store-bought.
Process the lemon juice and tahini for a minute.
Scrape the sides and bottom of bowl then process some more.
The extra time helps “whip” the tahini, which means we’re on our way to smooth and creamy hummus.
Add olive oil
minced garlic
ground cumin, cayenne pepper
and some salt then process again
scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl when you need too.
We use a whole can of chickpeas for this,
but like to add them in two batches.
After adding the second batch of chickpeas, process 1 to 2 minutes or until the hummus is thick
and quite smooth.
Grab the peppers from earlier and gently peel away the blackened and charred
pepper skin. Reserve 1 to 2 pieces to use as a garnish
then roughly chop the rest.
Add the peppers to the food processor
and to process until very smooth.
Chop the leftover peppers into small pieces,
scrape the hummus onto a dish, make a small well in the middle
and top with the peppers. Enjoy!
