  1. 200 grams chickpeas soaked overnight
  2. 1 clove garlic
  3. 2 tblsp tahini paste

  7. 1/2 cup water reserved from the boiled chickpeas

  3. 3. In a food processor/ blender add the chickpeas, water, tahini, salt, lemon juice and garlic. Pulse
  4. 4. Add olive oil, process until smooth. If you need more water or lemon, add now. Check for seasoning.
