Chickpeas are awesome, there are countless delicious dishes which include it, I will try to post as many as I can in the coming days since I’m sure many out there love chickpeas too. Behind each dish or recipe there is a story but I’m not going to bore you with that, all I’m going to say is that this dish came from the Middle East.
Ok, so let’s get started!
Ingredients
1 Can chickpeas or 2 Cups
4 Tablespoons olive oil
1/2 Cup tahini (sesame seed sauce/paste)
2 Cloves garlic minced
Juice of one lemon
Salt to taste
4 Tablespoons water
Paprika for garnishing
- In a blender or food processor, add all the ingredients and mix for at least 3 minutes. The paste should be smooth with no lumps
- Pour the hummus in your serving plate, drizzle olive oil on top.
- Sprinkle paprika over the hummus and serve.
TIP: If you like your hummus thick, reduce the water and olive oil.
