Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Tahini and some of the oil sesame seed paste
  • 2 cups Chickpeas - cooked completely or the lowest sodium possible canned . Reserve some of the liquid Garbanzo Beans, if starting from dry, rinsed well
  • 1/4 cup Olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp Cumin
  • 4 Cloves of garlic less if you aren't a garlic fan
  • Juice of 1 and a half lemon more to taste if desired
  • 1 tsp fresh ground pepper (black white, or pink peppercorns)

Method
 

  1. Put everything (except the chickpea water yet) in a food processor
  2. Add the water while pureeing to ensure a smooth spread
  3. Taste and adjust the seasoning as you go
  4. I serve it up drizzled with a bit more oil and a sprinkle more of cumin on top
  5. It should save up to a week in the fridge in a sealed container
