3. Remove your cannellini hummus from the blender with a spatula and serve on a plate.

4. Your cannellini bean cream is ready to be enjoyed.

5. Decorating your hummus - Decorate your hummus by creating a circular spiral shape on the surface of your cream. Use the 'spiral' as a guide to arrange your toppings.

I used these toppings: oven spiced chickpeas, chilli flakes, fresh herbs, pomegranate and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
