Ingredients
- 1 large Guajillo chili pepper, soaked in boiling water for 20 minutes, seeds removed
- 470 g boiled chickpeas, skins removed
- 7 tbsp tahini, good quality tahini
- 2 1/2 tbsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 garlic clove, minced & soaked in the lemon juice for 10 minutes
- 1/2 tsp cumin, freshly ground
- 3 tbsp unsweetened soy milk
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 3 ice cubes
- 1/2 tsp chili powder, or more to your own taste
Toppings
- 1 drizzle chili infused olive oil, optional
- 30 g boiled chickpeas, skins removed
Instructions
- Make sure you remove the chickpeas' skin, as this will make the biggest difference when it comes to achieving the perfect silky-smooth hummus texture. Don't skip!
- Soak the Guajillo chili pepper in boiling water for 30 minutes. Remove the seeds.
- Soak the minced garlic in the freshly squeezed lemon juice for 10 minutes. This will also make a huge difference in flavour as the garlic will lose its harsh taste and mellow out.
- In a food processor, combine the soaked chili pepper, skinless chickpeas, tahini, garlic and lemon mixture, freshly ground cumin, unsweetened soy milk, and sea salt, and process until the mixture is smooth, making sure to scrape down the sides.
- Stir in the ice cubes and process again until the mixture looks silky-smooth, pale, and very creamy.ย Now add the chili powder and process again. Taste the hummus and add any extra seasoning if desired.
- Scrape the hummus into a plate and use a spoon to create nice swooshes on top.
- Drizzle with some chili infused olive oil and top with a few chickpeas. Enjoy, you're going to love our Chili Hummus recipe!
