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?
