Easy Hummus is a brilliant dip for sliced vegetables and pittas and as a subtle addition to salads. Served as a dip, this is one recipe that has stood the test of time and still going strong. Most recipes use tahini but I don’t and I think its better. Just make sure that you make it the day before and chill it in the fridge overnight. It helps the flavours to fully combine for a truly amazing vegetarian dish.
