Hummus bi Tahina
125 g/4 oz chick peas/garbanzo beans soaked overnight
Juice of 2 lemons
3 tbs tahina (sesame seed paste)
2 garlic cloves, crushed
Salt
Garnish:
2-3 tbs olive oil
1 tsp paprika
Parsley, chopped
Drain chickpeas and simmer in fresh water for about an hour until tender; do not add salt or beans will not soften. Reserve cooking water.
Process chickpeas in a blender with lemon juice, tahina, garlic and salt and enough of cooking liquid to obtain a soft, creamy consistency.
Serve on a flat plate with a dribble of olive oil, and a little chopped parsley.
