What an evening I have had. Tonite I was all ready to go to yoga hopped into the car, flat battery. No time for RACV. Went to the neighbour his rego was overdue so he was reluctant, went to the next neighbour who thankfully had a car, and time, and he drove me there. Got there only to find a "NO-SHOW". It has been an age since I had one of those. We have moved the Yoga centre to a wonderful old country house called THE BENTINCK, and trying to get people to come out in the freezing cold to a new venue is so hard.Long short, got home early and decided to make some hummus whilst I waited for the RACV. So here we go. I should have made a chocolate cake! Comfort food, but I didn't..
This is an easy peasy recipe and always popular. Adding the sardines not only makes it taste very mediterranean, and add calcium and omega 3 - a nutritional boost. Chickpeas alone have as much calcium as milk.
Ingredients:
1 tin of chick peas drained, 2 or so cloves of garlic peeled, half a teas. of ground cummin, 1 dessertspoon of sweet paprika, juice of 2 lemons (I only use one if they are soft and juicy), 1 tin of sardines, a few shakes of sesame oil, 2 tablespoons of tahini and some sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
Method:
Easy peasy, Just throw it all in the blender and puree to the consistency which appeals to you. If it is too think add some olive oil.
Serve with dipping vegetables, gluten free toast or crackers, rice cakes - it is up to you. In the photo I have added it to a salad.
