I really enjoy houmous and have made this best basic houmous recipe in our Thermomix many times.   It's an incredibly quick and easy dip to make.  I've made a couple of the other flavoured houmous and dip recipes in the Thermomix - watch out for these being added!   Within the links below you'll find a recipe for chorizo dip - it's delicious!

We recently made our greek lamb meatballs and greek rice with spinach for dinner and had them along with a bowl of salad leaves and spring onions from our garden with baby tomatoes and cucumber chopped through it and toasted multi seeded flatbreads from Asda.  I made a half portion of this best basic houmous too.   It was all delicious!!

If you don't have a Thermomix and would like to try making this recipe, please scroll down for the Non-Thermomix Instructions I have suggested.

Tips

  • I tend to halve the recipe as the full recipe is quite a large portion.
  • Instead of toasted sesame seeds, I’ve been using the same quantity of tahini sesame paste instead.
  • Enjoy houmous as part of a meze platter with pitta bread, flatbread, breadsticks, crisps, and sticks of carrot and cucumber...yum!

Non-Thermomix Instructions

I'd suggest the recipe can easily be adapted using a stick blender or food processor to make the houmous.   My suggestions are as follows: 

  1. Place the garlic, chickpeas, water, lemon juice, oil, sesame seeds and salt in a bowl or suitable container if using a stick blender, blend until smooth.   If using a food processor, put the ingredients into the processor bowl and mix on high for 1 minute until smooth. 
  2. Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with oil and sprinkle with paprika. Serve cold or at room temperature.
