Mango Hummus recipe

Mango hummus recipe using ripe mango and chickpeas, a perfect dip for a party starters. Hummus is a Mediterranean dip, which i learnt in a Master chef cookery show. Last year when i judged a cookery competition themed mangoes, i happened to ta taste this mango hummus recipe. There was a raw mango hummus too but somehow the ripe mango one gained my attention a lot. It was served with a tangy crackers. Generally hummus will be served with falafel, a deep fried chickpeas based starter.
As the mango season is in peak now, let's give a nice twist to the hummus by adding a ripe mango to the hummus. It tasted so delicious and we enjoyed with freshly cut veggies like carrot and cucumber during breakfast and enjoyed with salt biscuits during tea time.
The sweetness of the mango was balanced by the paprika and pepper powder and the flavour of the mango in hummus was quite amazing. Do give it a try this summer and enjoy the dip.

Hummus recipe | Home made hummus

Hummus is a popular Mediterranean chickpeas dip,quite simple to make at home. I tasted this for the first time in a restaurant here in Singapore along with falafel and Pita bread. Later when i attended the cookery demo by Master Chef Nikita Gandhi,she taught Methi hummus recipe. But most of the hummus recipes use Tahini in it. The tahini we get here is expensive and comes in large bottles which is too big for a small family. Last year when we visited a friend for dinner,she made hummus and served with store bought Pita bread. It tasted so well. She told she didn't add Tahini and just added roasted sesame seeds. Later i totally forgot it,recently when we visited a Mediterranean restaurant here in Singapore,we had this Hummus along with other dips. I had some frozen chickpeas at home and immediately tried it today. It tasted so awesome and we had with store bought Tortilla chips. You can make this with Canned Chickpeas too.

Green Chutney with Almonds |Mint almond dip

Green Chutney with almonds| Mint almond dip,Kebab chutney this is a perfect chutney|dip for Chaat, sandwiches,samosas and kebabs. I have tried this green chutney with almonds some time back when i made Dahi kebabs for my cookery class in Singapore. This gives a  richness and volume to the chutney. The addition of chaat masala gives a nice flavor to the dip. A friend of mine shared this chutney recipe with me but she added Mayonnaise to this instead of almonds. I didn't want to add mayonnaise so added almonds. Even you can add 1 tablespoon thick yogurt to this green chutney. In that case you can skip the lemon juice. Stay tuned for interesting Paneer recipe coming up using this mint almond dip. Check out my
