Rebelrecipes Shares Unique Hummus Variation
Social media culinary creator rebelrecipes has shared a highly appealing recipe for Caramelised Leek Hummus, which they describe as ‘utterly delicious.’ The recipe provides detailed instructions for preparing this savory dip.
Ingredients Breakdown
The recipe calls for several key components:
- 3 leeks, washed and sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil (for cooking leeks)
- Pinch of sea salt (for cooking leeks)
- 1 can chickpeas, drained (reserving 2 tbsp of the water)
- Juice of 1/2 Lemon
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp runny tahini
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 tsp sea salt (for blending)
Preparation Instructions
rebelrecipes instructs users to first slowly cook the sliced leeks in olive oil within a pan until they become ‘soft and sticky.’ Once cooked, the leeks should be removed from the heat to cool.
After cooling, the leeks are combined with all remaining ingredients—the drained chickpeas, lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, tahini, garlic, and the reserved 2 tablespoons of chickpea water—in a food processor. The mixture should be blended until it achieves a ‘very smooth & creamy’ consistency.
