HUMMUS & VEGGIE WRAP-UP



Hummus & Veggie Wrap-Up image

I had a vegan wrap that was similar to this once when I stopped at a diner while on a long and arduous walk. I enjoyed it so much that I modified it to my own taste and now have it for lunch on a regular basis. Everyone at work wants to know how to make it. -Michael Steffens, Indianapolis, Indiana

Number Of Ingredients 18

a 16-to 18-inch round very thin pliable lahvash (mountain shepherd bread)*
1/2 cup sliced seedless cucumber
1 large carrot, cut into ribbonlike strands with a vegetable peeler (about 1 cup)
1 small sweet onion, sliced thin
1/2 cup finely shredded radish (about 6)
1/2 cup alfalfa sprouts plus additional for garnish
1 1/2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
about 2 cups hummus
For the hummus:
2 garlic cloves, minced and mashed to a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt
a 16- to 19-ounce can chick-peas, rinsed and drained
1/3 cup well-stirred tahini (sesame seed paste)*
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
*available at specialty foods shops, natural foods stores, and some supermarkets.

Steps:

  • To make the sandwiches:
  • Spread hummus evenly on lahvash and top with cucumber, carrot, onion, radish, 1/2 cup sprouts, and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds. Roll lahvash up tightly jelly-roll fashion and trim ends. Cut roll crosswise with a serrated knife into 8 pieces. Garnish sandwiches with additional sprouts and remaining 1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds.
  • To make the hummus:
  • In a food processor blend together garlic paste, chick-peas, tahini, lemon juice, oil, and cumin, scraping down side, until smooth. Add water, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste and pulse until just combined. Hummus may be made 2 days ahead and chilled. Makes about 2 cups.
