Homemade hummus recipe
Soak one glass of chickpeas in water overnight or keep them submerged for 12 to 24 hours. Strain in the morning. Pour in one and a half cups of water to completely cover the chickpeas. Simmer on low heat. Pour off the water after stewing. Add spices to stewed chickpeas. Add 100 g of sundried sun-dried tomatoes, 3 to 5 pieces of chopped garlic, 50 ml of olive oil, a little salt and one tablespoon of lemon juice. Mix the mixture.
The tastiest hummus is the one that has been in the fridge for several hours (before use).
