400 g canned kidney beans drained and rinsed 3 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1 clove garlic very finely grated or minced salt and pepper to taste
Add the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and seasoning to the food processor or blender.
Add the drained kidney beans and puree until smooth. Add a little water, a tablespoon at a time until you get the desired consistency.
If needed, scrape down the sides of the food processor and re-blitz until smooth and creamy.
If you like, add a tablespoon of tahini along with the other ingredients
For a milder garlic flavour, soak the garlic in the lemon juice for a few minutes before starting the recipe
If you don't have a food processor or blender, you could make a small batch of this hummus in a mortar and pestle
