Ingredients




1 tin Cheekpeas (450 g)
20 grams Pine Nuts
4 tablespoons Tahin
1 Lemon
1 small orange
Salt
Pepper

Preparation

1 Drain the chickpeas in a colander and squeeze one lemon + 1 small orange and reserve the juice. 2 Roast about 20 g pine nuts in a pan until they turn slightly brown and start to deliberate a delicious odour 3 Now you mix together 450 g chickpeas, 4 Tablespoons Tahin and the juice from ½ lemon in a blender until you obtain a smooth paste 4 Season with salt and pepper and add more Tahin or lemon juice regarding your taste. 5 Top the Humus with the roasted pine nuts and drizzle some olive oil over it. 6 If possible prepare the humus one day before you intend to eat it. I find that the Humus takes than better the flavour from the pine nuts.)
