I am informed by someone who doesn't eat dead animals that:

Veggy's
15 Thai Van Lung Street
Quan 1 TP HCM
Tel: 08/3823-8526


sells it.

They also have a branch in Phnom Penh.

Hummus Recipe 1

Hummus ingredients
Hummus is one of the more popular Middle Eastern dips. Served with fresh or toasted pita bread, hummus makes for a great snack or appetizer. Tahini is an important part of the hummus recipe and cannot be substituted. However, it can be omitted.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:

    1 16 oz can of chickpeas or garbanzo beans
    1/4 cup liquid from can of chickpeas
    3-5 tablespoons lemon juice (depending on taste)
    1 1/2 tablespoons tahini
    2 cloves garlic, crushed
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation:
Drain chickpeas and set aside liquid from can. Combine remaining ingredients in blender or food processor. Add 1/4 cup of liquid from chickpeas. Blend for 3-5 minutes on low until thoroughly mixed and smooth.

Place in serving bowl, and create a shallow well in the center of the hummus.

Add a small amount (1-2 tablespoons) of olive oil in the well. Garnish with parsley (optional).

Serve immediately with fresh, warm or toasted pita bread, or cover and refrigerate.

Variations

For a spicier hummus, add a sliced red chile or a dash of cayenne pepper.

Storing Hummus

Hummus can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and can be kept in the freezer for up to one month. Add a little olive oil if it appears to be too dry.
