Oil Free Roasted Red Pepper and Jalapeno Hummus

Hummus is a favourite in our house and never lasts longer than two or three days so I'm always making it.

Homemade hummus is so easy to make and I personally thing it tastes a lot better than store bought as you can control the flavours and switch it up however you like.

This Roasted Red pepper hummus is very easy to make and super delicious so give it a go and enjoy with whatever you like to eat hummus with.


Ingredients:

1 Can of chickpeas (washed and drained)
1 Red Bell pepper 
1 clove of garlic
1 Jalapeno
1 tsp Cumin powder
2 Tbs Tahini
1 tsp Himalayan
pinch of black pepper
Juice of half a lemon
3 Tbs of filtered water

Method and Preparation :

Slice the red pepper and place under the grill until it is slightly charred.


It should look like this.


Carefully place the grilled pepper in a zip-lock bag or a container with a lid and let them steam for ten minutes.


After 10 minutes you will be able to peel the charred layer off the pepper and they are ready to use.

Now add all of the ingredients into a food processor or high speed blender.


Pulse until you get the desired texture, you may need to add more water if it's too thick.


Pour Hummus into a container with a lid and refrigerate until you are ready to eat it.


Enjoy :)

  1. This looks super easy,tasty, and not with added oil, which is what most store bought Hummus has. As i have high cholesterol, I am avoiding added oils since August last year.
