Sundried Tomato & Roasted Red Pepper Hummus

Serves 8-10 Prep Time 10 minutes   Cook Time 40 minutes   Rated:

I do love a crunchy cracker with something delicious smeared all over it. And what better to smear than a colourful, flavourful hummus such as this one? You can skip the whole 'cooking your chickpeas' if you choose to replace the dried ones with a tinned option. Even simpler. (And quicker, which sometimes can be the whole point when it comes to appeasing an appetite.)

TIP:
To roast a red pepper (capsicum) place into a hot oven (200°C) straight onto the rack. Turn occasionally until the skin is blistered and blackened and the flesh soft. This is a little messy, so perhaps put a tray on the rack beneath to catch all the juices. Remove the pepper from the oven and place straight into a glass bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the pepper to cool. When cold, peel and de-seed. Try and reserve the juice to use in the dip, as it is very sweet and syrupy and well worth it.
