In this homemade recipe we are going to make it with tahini but if you do not have it, you can substitute it for 60 grams of toasted sesame seeds.

Remove the chickpeas from the jar and rinse them well to remove the liquid from the canning.
Put them in the thermomix glass, add the garlic clove (you can remove the germ so it does not repeat), lemon juice, tahini, salt and cumin.
We add speed to the crusher starting with a medium speed of the bucket.
We go up progressively until we get a semi-homogeneous dough.
Then add the olive oil and stir again.
Finally, add water in small pieces until you get the desired texture according to your taste.

A simple recipe that you can vary according to your taste

As you have seen, it is a recipe to make simple hummus in your Thermomix in just a quarter of an hour. If you have not been able to find Tahini, you can add to the mixture toasted sesame seeds (60 gr) without any problem. The result is the same, the only difference is that you may have to increase the speed of the Thermomix spoon to achieve the desired texture.

It is recommended to use the spatula after mixing at high speed to ensure that no remains are left on the walls of the Thermomix jug. If you want to get a creamier texture, you can add plain yogurt along with olive oil in the final steps.

In the same way, we recommend taste the hummus before adding water to add more salt and avoid bland results. Finally, you can decorate your homemade hummus with sesame seeds and a splash of olive oil.

How to make beet hummus Thermomix

To elaborate this beetroot hummus recipe You must follow the same steps that we follow for the original Thermomix recipe. As you may have noticed, there are only 2 notable differences in the ingredient list. Of course, you can also make your beet hummus without tahini substituting it for sesame seeds to get the same result.

The first, of course, is the appearance of beets. This time, the amount of chickpeas is divided and it is compensated by putting the same amount of beets. If you want to enhance or reduce the flavor of the beet, all you have to do is vary the grams of it to a greater or lesser extent. For example, adding 250 grams of beets and 150 grams of chickpeas.

On the other hand, we have the spicy or sweet paprika that will help balance and enhance even more the flavor of the recipe. However, this ingredient is not essential for the recipe so you can also make it without it.

And since we have mentioned it, if you like paprika, you should know that you can also add it to the end of your classic hummus recipe. Once plated, you can add a pinch of paprika along with a splash of EVOO to add color and flavor to your recipe.
