Hummus with crunchy spiced chickpeas and yogurt sauce with mint

Today we bring you a truly spectacular recipe. It's one of the richer hummus that we have never prepared in Thermorecetas and we have a lot already published! Besides, the presentation is super nice and striking. She makes you enter your eyes as soon as she sees it... and as soon as you try it... you can't stop eating! We present to you what will undoubtedly be one of the best recipes of this 2023: hummus with crunchy spiced chickpeas and mint yoghurt sauce. 

Do you remember the crispy spiced chickpeas that we made with the airfryer some days ago? Well today we are going to use them to put the finishing touch to this super recipe. The combination of hummus made with chickpeas and crunchy chickpeas will be very special: it will give you a delicious flavor and an incredible texture combination.

The key to a A good hummus is to make it with chickpeas cooked by ourselves. Although it is true that a spectacular result is also achieved with the cooked chickpeas that we already buy in jars and it solves a starter or a meal in a flash, you will see the difference when you cook your own chickpeas yourself. You can do it in the thermomix or in an express pot, whichever is more comfortable for you.

Another trick to get a delicious hummus is that when we cook the chickpeas we add a pinch of baking soda, This will make the skin peel off the chickpea easily and so we will have a finer paste when we crush them.

The rest... completely up to your imagination, taste and creativity. I recommend adding other ingredients on top: pico de gallo, yogurt with mint (as we will do today), tahini sauce, cooked chickpeas, crunchy chickpeas (like today's), minced meat, onion confit... in short, endless ideas and combinations, choose what you like best!

4. Add the chickpeas, 50 g of cooking water, tahini, salt, lemon juice and 1/2 garlic to the thermomix glass. we program 1 minute, speed 5-10.

5. Lower the remains of the lid and walls, add the ice, more cooking water if necessary and crush 2 minutes, speed 10.
