As a (self-confessed) hummus addict, there is nothing better than slathering a thick layer of hummus on top of a freshly toasted slice of sourdough.
One thing that would make it better is adding pickled cucumber on top! Inspired by Bettina (@Bettinas_kitchen) and her recent cook book release 'Happy Food' I bring you this mouthful of joy.
The pickled cucumbers take only minutes to make and work perfectly in a number of recipes such as salads, burgers or simply with hummus and sourdough like this.
Ingredients
2 slices of sourdough
3 heaped tbsp hummus
1/2 cucumber
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
pinch of brown sugar
pepper to taste
Method
Using a julienne peeler, peel long-ways down the cucumber and place in a bowl with the vinegar, sugar and add a pinch of salt. Allow to soak for 5 minutes
Pop the sourdough in the toaster
Lather the hummus over the two slices of toasted sourdough and add the cucumber on top
Add a sprinkle of cracked black pepper and enjoy!
