Ingredients
Ingredients scaled to 6 servings
- 2 cans canned chickpeas
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- ½ garlic, raw
- 1 lemon juice
- salt, to taste
- Syrian spice blend, to taste
- extra virgin olive oil, to taste
- paprika
Preparation
- Step 1Drain two cans of chickpeas, reserving some of the liquid. Microwave the chickpeas for 1 minute to warm them.
- Step 2Add the warmed chickpeas to a blender along with some of the reserved chickpea liquid, the tahini, half a clove of raw garlic, the juice of one lemon, a generous pinch of salt, Syrian spice blend to taste, and a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil.
- Step 3Blend thoroughly until smooth. If it is difficult to blend, stir with a spoon and add a little more of the chickpea liquid until it reaches a smooth, creamy texture.
- Step 4Transfer to a serving dish. Note that it will thicken further once chilled. Finish by drizzling with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkling with a little paprika or other spice.
Notes
- If you don't have tahini, you can make your own (as shown in another video) or omit it.
- The hummus will thicken more after it cools or is refrigerated.
