Red onion hummus

1 large red onion
1 can of chickpeas
1tbls of water
2tsp of tahini
Seasoning
Oil to fry onions

I used to spend a fortune on buying onion hummus, I now love experimenting with different types to see which is my favourite, I used tahini in this recipe which I dont normally like in hummus which is just a personal preference and will be leaving it out in the future.
Start by dicing your red onion, heat up a pan with about a tbls of oil add the onion and lots of seasoning and fry until soft with slight colour. Add your chickpeas and water, I use the water out of the can of chickpeas, to a bowl with the tahini if adding it, then the onions and blend, keep tasting to see if more seasoning or tahini needs adding. I enjoyed my hummus on a piece of toasted seeded bread.
