Roasted Red Pepper Hummus is one of my favourite Hummus recipes.
The smokiness from the charred Peppers and Paprika added to classic Hummus ingredients is just magic.
Apart from being lip smackingly delicious, this gorgeous scarlet Hummus is an absolute show stopper.
The ingredients used in this Hummus are really simple yet flavorful . Roasted Red Peppers, Chickpeas, Tahina, Salt, Lime Juice, Garlic and Aquafaba are mixed in the blender into a velvety consistency. I like to leave the Hummus in the refrigerator to chill for a few hours before serving it.
I strongly urge you to try this incredibly flavourful Hummus. You may end up loving it more than your other favourite Hummus recipes.
