This classic homemade hummus is a staple of Mediterranean plant-based cooking, offering a rich and velvety texture that far surpasses any shop-bought alternative. By blending protein-rich chickpeas with nutty tahini, fresh lemon juice, and aromatic garlic, you create a versatile vegan dip that is as nutritious as it is flavourful. The addition of ground cumin provides a subtle earthy warmth, while a generous drizzle of quality olive oil ensures a luxurious finish.
Perfect as a healthy snack or a central part of a vibrant mezze platter, this dip is incredibly easy to customise to your taste. Whether you prefer a bold citrus tang or an extra kick of garlic, this recipe provides the ideal base for experimenting with different toppings. Serve it alongside toasted pitta bread, crunchy cucumber batons, or as a creamy spread in a roasted vegetable wrap for a satisfying lunch.

Ingredients for Hummus
475ml drained well-cooked or canned chickpeas, liquid reserved
120ml tahini (sesame paste), optional, with some of its oil
60ml extra-virgin olive oil, plus oil for drizzling
2 cloves garlic, peeled, or to taste
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon ground cumin or paprika, or to taste, plus a sprinkling for garnish
Juice of 1 lemon, plus more as needed
Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish
How to make Hummus
Put everything except the parsley in a food processor and begin to process; add the chickpea liquid or water as needed to allow the machine to produce a smooth puree.
Taste and adjust the seasoning (I often find I like to add much more lemon juice). Serve, drizzled with the olive oil and sprinkled with a bit more cumin or paprika and some parsley.
