I love this twist on hummus and this version 2 uses roasted garlic gloves rather than a fresh garlic glove, plus a little bit more ground cumin. Roasting the garlic takes away that garlicky after-taste, which you may or may not like. I personally do not want to smell of garlic when I am teaching so this is a great option if you feel like me. Try both recipes and decide for yourself what you prefer.
dash of water (optional)(You can add water to adjust the consistency to your liking).
salt and pepper seasoning
1tspground cumin (I use a heaped teaspoon as I like the taste, but adjust to your liking)
Instructions
To roast the garlic, I simply placed some garlic gloves on a tray at the bottom of the oven for 10-20 minutes when I was using the oven to cook something. You just want to roast the garlic until it feels soft. You can even roast a whole garlic glove and keep some in the fridge to add to other dishes.
Simply place all the ingredients into a blender and blend to your desired consistency. It is worth tasting the mixture part way through blending so you can add extra seasoning etc if you want to.
I like to serve it a bowl and add some sesame seeds or mixed seeds to the top. You can also freeze the hummus into small portions to have at a later time.
