Easy Low Fat Houmous

Recipe by: ELOVINGS

Reviews(6)

I make this houmous all the time. It only takes a few minutes to prepare, and it's healthier than shop-bought without the oil. Increase or decrease the ingredients as desired, especially the chillies! Serve with tortilla crisps, pitta triangles or fresh vegetables. Add more of the reserved chickpea liquid for a smoother dip.

Majudura

Recipe by: SimonB

Be the first to review it!

This is a traditional arabic recipe, passed down from my Palestinian grandmother, to my mother, and then to me. I always loved this as a kid, and being a vegetarian dish, was something i was keen to do as my mother always said it was so simple and tasty. Its also very cheap to make, and really nutritious. The secret is not to skimp on the onion, and to let the onion cook slowly for a long time, till almost brown, but still soft.

This irridescent milk jelly, delicately perfumed with almond, is set off to perfection by the exotic flavours and beautiful colours of the mixed fruit salad. Very little sugar is needed as the fruit provides natural sweetness.
