Roasted red capsicum, sumac and pumpkin seed hummus
Middle Eastern 20 Mins Prep · 10 Mins Cook
- Preheat the oven to 250°C, gas mark 6.
- Place the red capsicums on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil. Roast in the oven until the skin is charred and blistered, approx. 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Peel and remove the seeds.
- Peel the garlic. Juice the lemon. Drain and rinse the chickpeas.
- To make the toasted seed mix, place a pan over a medium heat. Add 20g of each sunflower, pumpkin and sesame seeds and toast for 3-4 minutes, until they are golden and fragrant. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- In a food processor, place 1 roasted red capsicum, chickpeas, 50g pumpkin seeds, remaining olive oil, sumac, garlic, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. Add some ice water, if needed.
- Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and top with the remaining roasted red capsicum. Sprinkle over the toasted mixed seeds and serve with crudités or flatbreads of choice.
