I have to agree with the poster of the recipe. Such a unique take on hummus. Delightfully different would be how I'd describe it. The curry plays well with chickpeas and the currants are delcious bursts of sweetness that make my palate happy. I will absolutely, definitely be making this again. Thanks so much for sharing!

My secret indulgence? Grocery Shopping.
I can literally spend hours roaming up and down the aisles of a Supermarket.
Sound crazy? Not if you're a self described "Foodie" like me.
I am fortunate enough to live in the city of Vancouver, British Columbia. The food community here is very rich in diversity, which has allowed me to sample tasty treats from all over the planet right here at home.
Aside from the Supermarket, there are tons of smaller Ethnic Grocery Stores, Butcher shops and Bakeries here in the city.
Vancouver is also home to the Granville Island Public Market - a food lovers haven! Imagine over 100 fresh produce, local seafood, speciatly meat and gourmet shops all in the same building... no wonder I love cooking so much!
