Hummis bi tahini
1 Servings
Quantity | Ingredient | |
---|---|---|
½ | cup | Sesame Seed Paste -- |
\N | \N | (tahini) |
⅓ | cup | Water |
¼ | cup | Olive Oil |
6 | tablespoons | Lemon Juice |
4 | \N | Cloves Garlic -- peeled |
2 | cans | Garbanzo Beans -- well |
\N | \N | Drained |
½ | teaspoon | Ground Cumin |
1 | teaspoon | Coriander Seeds |
\N | \N | Salt -- to taste |
Combine first five ingredients in food processor and blend until smooth. Add chickpeas and seasonings and blend to puree. Taste and adjust flavors to suit (I usually like a little more lemon.).
The mixture you get before adding the chickpeas is also delicious, although extremely strong in garlic :>). Use a bit less garlic, thin with water and you've got a delicious salad dressing. Unfortunately, a very high fat salad dressing, though.
