Ingredients

  • 1 can chickpeas / garbanzo beans 1 x 15.5oz can
  • 2 tbsp fat free natural yogurt
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ tsp ground sea salt
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ¼ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp olive oil optional

Instructions

  • Place the chickpeas in their water into a saucepan and bring to a simmer.
  • Simmer for 15 - 20 minutes.
  • Once they have simmered for 15 - 20 minutes, remove them from the heat and remove the chickpeas from the saucepan using a slotted spoon.
  • Make sure to retain the left over water as you will use this later.
  • Place the chickpeas, yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt and cumin into the bowl of a food processor.
  • Blitz until the mixture is smooth.
  • Add chickpea water tablespoon by tablespoon, blitzing between each addition until you have reached the hummus consistency that you prefer ( I usually add 2 - 3 tablespoons)
  • Serve sprinkled with the paprika and a drizzle of olive oil.
