Aldi's Del Continental Houmous /0.99/200g
Nice smooth texture with good blend of flavours, although we're not keen on the white pepper taste ***
M&S Houmous /2.29/300g Convincing homemade texture. Rich and creamy with lovely notes of lemon and garlic. Delicious *****
Tesco Houmous /2.19/300g Quite a creamy paste with slight graininess. Distinctive tahini flavour and good lemon kick ****
Tesco Reduced Fat Houmous /1.09/200g Overly smooth and light tasting, we didn't like the seasoning as much as the full-fat version **
