Spicy Hummus

Indian-style spicy hummus

Originally I became going to come up with a spicy hummus sandwich, but on the ultimate minute determined alternatively to serve it as a dip with raw greens and selfmade candy potato flatbreads. You can also wish to gently toast a few pita triangles to go with this thick, creamy and clean-tasting spicy hummus. I turned into maximum thrilled with the result, as have been my dining companions. It makes for a great past due spring / early summer season meal to experience at the patio and, no longer withstanding the cleanup of the wretched food processor that is absolutely a puzzle to put again together after cleaning it (as a minimum mine is), hummus is one of the simplest spreads to make and simply simple appropriate for you too.

Notes: This recipe calls for red chili and vinegar paste or "balchao masala". This is an easy Indian spice paste to make at home, and it will keep refrigerated for several months. It does come with a bit of a warning though — it's very hot, so start with just a teaspoon and taste the hummus before adding more. I adore this paste and it works well in any number of curries and even Indian crêpes. This fantastic paste has been a staple in my kitchen for a long time now and it should be in yours too if you enjoy Indian cooking. Do play around with the flavors here.
