Thai Hummus Recipes

THAI COCONUT CURRY HUMMUS

Steps:

• Place the chickpeas, red curry paste, garlic, lime zest, and salt in the food processor. Pour 1/2 cup of coconut milk over the top and cover.
• Puree until very smooth, then check the consistency. If you like your hummus a little more loose, add another 1/4 cup coconut milk and puree again.
• Scoop into a bowl and sprinkle chopped Thai basil over the top. Serve with endive, cut vegetables, or rice crackers.

THE BEST HUMMUS

Steps:

• Drain the chickpeas in a medium mesh sieve, reserving the liquid. Reserve about 7 chickpeas for garnish.
• Process the tahini, garlic and cumin in a food processor. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in 2/3 cup of the reserved chickpea liquid (if you don't have exactly 2/3 cup, add water until the total amount is 2/3 cup) and process until light and very creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. The mixture will appear broken at first but will come together after all the liquid is added and has been processed for a minute or two.
• Add the chickpeas, the lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the tahini mixture. Process until the mixture is extremely smooth, scraping down the sides occasionally, about 4 minutes. Thin with more water if you prefer a looser consistency. Taste and season with more salt, lemon juice or cumin as desired.
• Spoon the hummus into a shallow bowl, making a well in the center, and drizzle liberally with oil. Top with the reserved chickpeas and sprinkle with paprika. Serve with pita bread, pita chips or cut raw vegetables.

THAI PEANUT HUMMUS

Steps:

• Add chickpeas, peanut butter, Sriracha, ginger, garlic, honey/maple syrup/agave, and salt and pepper to taste into a food processor. Process until broken up. Scrape the sides with a spatula as needed.
• With the motor running, drizzle in olive oil and ice water. This will help the mixture come together and get super-smooth!
• Once the hummus is processed to your desired texture, taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
• Mix in peanuts, green onions, and cilantro with a spatula. Serve with tortilla chips and a squeeze of lime.
• Notes:.
• Depending on your heat preferences, add in as much or as little Sriracha to your taste.
• Add more ice water for a thinner hummus.

CLASSIC HUMMUS BY ALON SHAYA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the dried chickpeas, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and 1½ quarts (1.4 L) of cold water water. Soak overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
• Drain the chickpeas and transfer to a baking sheet. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of baking soda and spread evenly on the sheet. Bake for 10 minutes.
• Transfer baked chickpeas to colander and rinse under cold water. Massage to remove excess baking soda and begin to loosen the skins.
• In a large pot over high heat, add the rinsed chickpeas, remaining 1½ quarts (1.4 L) of water, and remaining ½ teaspoon of baking soda. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium.
• With a slotted spoon or small sieve, skim away any foam and loose skins that rise to the surface of the water and discard. This will ensure the hummus is extra creamy and smooth! Continue this process, regularly skimming off any loose skins, for about 20 minutes.
• Add the garlic to the pot and continue to cook for another 25-30 minutes, until the chickpeas are very soft and easily fall apart.
• Drain the chickpeas and let sit for a few minutes to let any extra moisture drain off.
• Transfer the chickpeas to a food processor with the tahini, salt, cumin, and lemon juice. Process for 2-3 minutes, until the mixture is super smooth.
• With the food processor still running, add the canola oil, hot water, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Continue to process for another 2-3 minutes. Don't worry, you can't over-process it! You want the hummus to be as smooth and creamy as possible.
• To serve, spread the hummus in a wide, shallow bowl. If desired, top with tahini sauce, olive oil, and garnish with parsley and Aleppo-style pepper.
• Enjoy!
