My name is Bethany and I am a hummus addict. When I say I could gallons of the stuff, I really do mean it and have come close on many an occasion. Google hummus recipes and you will be met with reems of versions using dried/canned/jarred chickpeas, but this is my version which works well every time. You really can top hummus with whatever you like, but I have started making this version in multiple forms lately and it really does make a great snack for a dinner party and looks lovely as part of a mezzo spread. Also, if you don’t have time to make your own hummus, just buy a good quality extra virgin olive oil version and make the toppings which takes 5 minutes.

If anyone has ever gone to Mowgli Street Food you will have experienced the joy that is the chaat bomb. I am obsessed with them and decided to try and recreate my own version for a pre-dinner canapé this Christmas. Give these a go for a flavour explosion.
