Instructions

Ingredients
- 340g spaghetti or bucatini
- Salt, for the pasta water and seasoning
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus extra to serve
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 2 large shallots, finely chopped
- 245g Black Swan Favourites Hommus
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- A handful of tender herbs (such as parsley, basil or dill)
- Toasted sesame seeds
- A pinch of chilli flakes (optional)
Method
- Cook the pasta
Bring a large saucepan of generously salted water to the boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to the packet instructions. Before draining, reserve 1 cup (235ml) of the pasta cooking water. - Build the sauce
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallots with a pinch of salt and cook for around 2 minutes, stirring regularly, until fragrant and softened.
Add the Black Swan Favourites Hummus and ½ cup (120ml) of the reserved pasta water. Stir continuously until the hummus becomes silky and creamy. Mix through the lemon zest and juice, then reduce the heat to low. - Bring it all together
Add the drained pasta to the pan and toss until every strand is coated in the creamy hummus sauce. If needed, gradually stir through a little more reserved pasta water until the sauce reaches your preferred consistency. Taste and season if required. - Finish and serve
Divide between bowls and finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, fresh herbs, toasted sesame seeds, a pinch of chilli flakes and a little extra lemon zest. Serve immediately.
