Hummus
2 cans chickpeas (garbanzos), liquid drained
2 large garlic cloves
1/3 cup tahini
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tsp cumin powder
juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup water
salt to taste
1. In a blender or food processor, combine all the ingredients except the water. Pulse, then scrape the sides. Add water then blend for a few minutes until smooth. You can add a bit more water to reach desired consistency. Blend longer if you want it extra creamy, or keep it slightly coarse if preferred.
2. To serve, spread the hummus on a plate, drizzle with olive oil then sprinkle with smoked paprika and chopped parsley. Best enjoyed with warm pita bread.
