Recipe's preparation

    Avocado Hummus / Hommus
  1. Place lemon zest and garlic cloves into bowl, chop 3 sec / speed 7. Scrape down sides and repeat.

  2. Add chickpeas, lemon juice, oil, ground cumin, salt, pepper and mix 10 - 15 sec / speed 5. Scrape down sides and repeat in 10 second intervals until desired consistency is achieved.

  3. Add avocado flesh, mix 10 - 15 sec / speed 5. Scrape down sides and repeat until desired consistency is achieved.

Tip

If Shepard Avocado are in season, use these as they do NOT discolour.  Otherwise, prepare just prior to serving to maintain colour, otherwise pop the seeds into the dip and cover with glad wrap ensuring the wrap is pressed against the dip to minimise air.  If the dip discolours this will only be on top where it is exposed to air, either scrape this layer off or mix it in with the remainder of the dip.Serve with any of the following; vegetable sticks, foccaccia, crackers, white corn tortilla strips or spread on toast.This normally fills 2 ramekins, depending on how much avocado you use.

    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
