Turkish Snack Plate

A bowl with a kind of hummus and some veggies, a perfect plate for a healthy snack.

The idea was from my newest cooking magazine issue Sofra. In Turkish language, but in this case the photo was enough to inspire me. No Google translater needed.

I bought green asparagus and some carrots. They were the veggies in the original recipe. But they had the usual hummus to dip in the middle.

But my trip to the Turkish supermarket brought me a can of fava beans with chickpeas in a balance of 2/3 to 1/3. With the ingredients for a standart hummus it came out very tasty, but a lot darker in color.

I cooked the carrots with an onion in olive oil and a little water with a lid on the pot.

The green asparagus went in the pan with olive oil too.

I found some green almonds and served some with the hummus too.
