Cornichons Hummus and Lebanese Grazing Platter with Maille

Come Friday nights and the weekend and I get a bit over cooking dinners and I prefer having a relaxed meal in the form of a grazing platter with my family or friends.

We eat it in the lounge room while watching a family movie or outside in the garden in summer while the kids play and we get to chat about our week.

I like to keep our grazing platters healthy by adding cut up fruit and vegetables and some homemade dips. This time I made cornichons hummus made with Maille

Cornichons Original. Hummus is a great source of plant-based protein as it is made with chickpeas and it also contains lemon juice, garlic and tahini so it is really healthy.

  • 2 tsp of cumin powder
  • 1 tsp of onion powder
  • pepper
  1. Drain and rinse your canned chickpeas, in a blender blitz the chickpeas and the rest of the ingredients until smooth and creamy.
