fattet hummus (mid-eastern savory chickpea bread pudding)

Fattet hummus is a creamy, pine-nutty concoction often eaten in Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria for a satisfying weekend brunch. This breakfast dish is delicious and festive, yet very straightforward to make. This is a great option for vegetarians, as it packs a healthy dose of protein and makes a very filling main meal. <br /> <br />The great thing about it, too, is that you cannot really get the quantities wrong. There are many variations of this dish, and traditionally each cook will settle on their own method. The final texture, its creaminess versus crunchiness, the level of acidity and the final presentation of Fattet Hummus are all up to you! You can adjust the amount of lemon juice, tahini and garlic to suit your taste. <br /> <br />Serve your Fattet Hummus with crisp chilled radishes, tart quartered fresh onions (soaked overnight in cold water to sweeten them) and a rustic white farmer's cheese on the side. Traditionally, sweet black tea infused with lots of fresh mint accompanies this dish, served steaming hot in small glasses.
