Method

  • step 1

    To make the hummus, tip a 210g can chickpeas with the liquid into a bowl and add 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 large garlic clove, 1 tsp vegetable bouillon, 2 tsp tahini and ¼ tsp ground coriander.

  • step 2

    Blitz to a wet paste with a hand blender, still retaining some texture from the chickpeas.

  • step 3

    Cook 115g wholemeal penne pasta according to the pack instructions.

  • step 4

    Meanwhile, heat 2 tsp rapeseed oil in a non-stick wok or large frying pan and add 2 halved and sliced red onions and 200g roughly chopped closed cup mushrooms, stirring frequently until softened and starting to caramelise.

  • step 5

    Toss together lightly, squeeze over the juice of ½ a lemon and serve, adding a dash of water to loosen the mixture a little if needed. Scatter with a generous handful of chopped parsley.

Tasty and easy to make. I find it's best with large chestnut mushrooms cut into chunky pieces.

Wanted to try something different, so gave this a go. Not sure that hummus works well as a pasta sauce though. Too cloy-y, if that's even a word. Liked the mushroom and onion aspect, and loads of parsley and lemon freshened the dish up. Used a whole can of chickpeas so now have leftover hummus which…
