This is an easy homemade houmous recipe. Houmous is hard to find in Germany and this version can be easily made up using mainly store cupboard ingredients at a fraction of the cost or shop bought. If you like it spicy add some paprika powder till you get the desired level of heat. Goes great with my homemade flat breads or with carrot and cucumber sticks. It will keep covered in the fridge for a few days.
