    Hummus Recipe

    This is one of my favourite dip, it has a beautiful sesame flavour from the tahini. It is creamy, garlicky, tangy all in one. Perfect to dip crisp cut veggies as well, it makes a great spread for any sandwiches or shawarma as well..Can be had as a dipping sauce for grilled chicken as well..

      Do we need to soak the channa overnight? Or can we boil it without soaking?
