Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1 can Chickpeas (Drained and rinsed.)
1 small clove Garlic (Fresh garlic for flavor.)
1/4 cup Fresh Lemon juice (Use fresh juice for best flavor.)
1/4 cup Tahini (Stir well if separated.)
1/2 tsp Salt (Adjust to taste.)
2 tbsp Extra virgin Olive oil (For creaminess.)
1/2 tsp Ground Cumin (Spice for flavor.)
2 tbsp Ice water (Add gradually for desired consistency.)

Instructions

Preparation

Drain and rinse the chickpeas.
In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice, tahini, salt, cumin, and olive oil.
Blend until smooth.
If the mixture is too thick, add ice water a tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.
Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with paprika and parsley. Serve with pita or veggies.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container with a drizzle of olive oil to slow down drying. Keeps well in the fridge for up to five days; freeze for longer storage. Potential variations include adding roasted red pepper or pesto.
