CHICKPEAS AND PEAS HUMMUS

Given the gratifying effect for the spirit and body of a good cool and vegan recipe for these high temperatures, I share with you this tasty recipe of mine, a variation of the traditional hummus. It is easy to make and a great success in family and friends gatherings, I am always asked to make it.

Ingredients

• Chickpeas 500g

• Peas 200g

• Spring onion or red onion 1 pc.

• Garlic 1 clove

• Tahini 4 tablespoons

• Cumin 1 tablespoon

• Salt 1 tablespoon

• Turmeric root 3

• Parsley 40g

• Paprika 1 tablespoon

• Lemon ½ squeezed

• Virgin olive oil 3 tablespoons

Put a good variety of seasonal chickpeas that have been soaking since the day before, with the fresh peas (can be frozen), in a pressure cooker (10 minutes if it is a Kuhn Rikon one, it might vary if you use other style of pressure cooker).

Mix with the rest of the ingredients in the Thermomix until a homogeneous paste is made.

Serve chilled with bread "regañas", breadsticks, tacos or grissinis, for dipping!

Note: Another variation could be made by adding avocado and cilantro instead of parsley.
