Hummus

Category: MiscellaneousCollection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • can of garbonzo beans
  • half a fresh lemon
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • salt and pepper
  • fresh mint about 10 leaves

Directions

1. Drain the garbonzo beans and keep the juice. Put beans in a blender.

2. Add the peeled garlic, squeezed lemon juice, mint leaves.

3. Blend. I find that sometimes i need to add some of the bean juice to
get the right consistancy. Also add salt and pepper to taste.

4. Blend for about 3-5 mins or until it tastes good.

NOTE: This often improves with keeping, the flavor gets better and
stronger. Some people like to add a little bit of oil but it adds to much
fat for my tastes.

Serves: about 10
