Cucumber And Tomato Sandwich With Garlic White Bean Hummus Recipes

Steps:

• In a food processor or blender, combine the beans, miso, tahini, cumin, garlic and lemon juice. Process or blend on high speed until the mixture starts to come together.
• With the machine running on low speed, slowly add the cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture looks creamy but not too loose. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
• To serve, spoon the hummus into a shallow bowl and drizzle with a little olive oil, a sprinkle of black pepper and the chives. Serve with pita, breadsticks or chips and assorted vegetables for dipping.

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine the chickpeas with their liquid from the can, the lemon juice, garlic, tahini, salt and the cumin. Process until combined. With the machine running, add 1 tablespoon olive oil (see Cook's Note) and process until the hummus is smooth but still thick. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula, as necessary.
• Taste the hummus and don't be afraid to add more salt, lemon juice and/or cumin, if desired.
• To make the classic hummus bowl swoosh: Place a heaping dollop of hummus in the center of the plate. In one smooth motion, with the tip of a large serving spoon in the center of the hummus, push the spoon down and rotate while you spin the plate in the opposite direction.
• Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with paprika. Top with feta, cucumber, tomatoes, and olives. Serve with the pita.

Steps:

• Put the tomatoes, cucumber, and white beans into a bowl and toss to combine. Whisk together the hummus and vinaigrette and add to the bean mixture. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste. Spread the lettuce onto a platter, top with the bean mixture and serve.

Steps:

• For the tomato chutney: Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until very soft and slightly caramelized. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes, 1/4 cup water, the vinegar, sugar, allspice, cinnamon and salt and pepper to taste and cook until the tomatoes soften and the mixture thickens, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro. Let cool to room temperature.
• For the hummus: Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft. Stir in the curry powder and cook for 1 minute. Add 1 cup water and cook, stirring constantly, until the water has almost completely evaporated. Stir in the cayenne and cool briefly.
• Put the chickpeas, curried onions, tahini, olive oil, honey and some salt and pepper in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the parsley and pulse to incorporate. Season with the lemon juice and more salt and pepper if needed.
• Heat a charcoal or gas grill to high for direct grilling. Brush the naan with some of the canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown on both sides and slightly charred.
• Spread each piece of naan with some of the hummus and top with some of the chutney.
