In 2008 I have been on Holiday in Jordan. A great country with warm people really wanting to help you, and not ripping of tourists. We visited many traditional sites and could enjoy delicious mezzes. On my way back I had a cookbook in my luggage with the best Jordan recipes.
One of them is hummus, which I still make a lot in summer and when I have guests.

It takes only half an hour to prepare. You can eat it with chips, tacos or flatbread.
Hummus bil tahini
Hummus is a delicious appetizer based on chickpeas. I discovered it on Holiday in Jordany. This recipe is in combination with radish and sesame paste.

- 1 cup chickpeas canned
- 2 tablespoons sesame paste

- 50 ml lime juice
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 2 cloves garlic

InstructionsÂ
- Drain the chickpeas. Keep one tablespoon for garnishing at the end. Mash the rest.
- Chop the garlic cloves finely.
- Mix the chickpeas with the lime juice, sesame paste, garlic, parsley and salt until you have a thick and creamy mass.
- Arrange the hummus on a plate. Make a hole in the middle and pour some olive oil in it. Decorate with the remaining chickpeas, some radishes, parsley and cumin powder.
