Ingredients

Servings:6
  • 15 oz can Chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
  • 1 unit Whole head of garlic
  • 1/3 cup Tahini (sesame paste)
  • 3 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp Ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt
  • 2 tbsp Ice water
  • 1 pinch Paprika(optional)
  • 1 tsp Fresh parsley, chopped(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the top off the garlic head to expose the cloves, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for 35-40 minutes until soft.

  2. 2

    Once the garlic is cool enough to handle, squeeze the roasted cloves out of their skins into a food processor.

  3. 3

    Add the tahini and lemon juice to the food processor and process for 1 minute until creamy and whipped.

  4. 4

    Add the chickpeas, olive oil, cumin, and salt to the mixture.

  5. 5

    Process for 2-3 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides, until the mixture is thick and smooth.

  6. 6

    While the processor is running, drizzle in the ice water; this is the secret to achieving a light, fluffy texture.

  7. 7

    Taste and adjust salt or lemon juice if necessary.

  8. 8

    Transfer to a bowl, drizzle with a little extra olive oil, and garnish with paprika and parsley before serving.
