There are many hummus recipes and various adaptions. This version is made with red lentils and chickpeas and served with a selection of roasted root veggies. Hummus is really versatile, as you can use it as an alternative to butter on a sandwich, in a wrap, as a dipping sauce, or dollop it onto a salad or roasted veg as a delicious dressing. It’s as delicious with meatballs or chicken.
Hummus (of hoemoes gespel en as ‘goemoes’ uitgespreek) is ’n bekende Griekse kekerertjie-‘patee’. Die veelsydige happie is heerlik om op soveel verskillende maniere te gebruik. Dis deesdae baie gewild en oral in supermarkte beskikbaar, maar min kan egter by ’n tuisgemaakte bakkie van dié gesonde lekkerte kersvashou.
This well-known, yet simple Middle Eastern chickpea condiment is super versatile and equally healthy – definitely more than just a dip for veggies. A good dollop of this oh-so-creamy, thick spread is divine on warm strips of pita, ciabatta or wholewheat toast. It’s typically combined with lamb or falafels in a pita or wrap, with fresh salad ingredients like cucumber, cabbage and tomato. What is your favourite way to enjoy hummus?
Have you tasted the fabulous combination of roasted sweet potatoes, cauliflower and chickpeas before? Roasting veggies brings out the best in them. It’s also a quick and easy cooking methods, as the oven does most of the work. The cauliflower gets a lovely nutty taste, and the natural sweetness of onions and sweet potatoes is absolutely delicious when roasted. And you know I am the cumin queen so that’s why my favourite spice is used in this recipe and it pairs beautifully with the potatoes, cauliflower and chickpeas. The herby yoghurt sauce rounds this veggie main or side dish off perfectly!
Met kekerertjies kan jy my in ’n wip vang! En as daar nog eiervrug ook by is, is ek nog meer opgewonde. Hierdie aromatiese tamatiesous met speserye is die perfekte basis vir beide dié bestanddele en dis ewe lekker om warm of teen kamertemperatuur te eet.
Dukkah en kekerertjies met sappige appels, ’n paar kruieblare en saggekookte eiers is ’n lenteslaai uit die boonste rakke.

Met net ’n paar bestanddele en ’n interessante geurmiddel kan jy met min moeite ’n ete gereed hê.
