Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Serves: 2 

Ingredients: 

• 1/4 cup (60 ml) well-stirred tahini
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) fresh lemon juice (1 large lemon)
• 2 Tbsp (30 ml) extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
• 1 tsp Deliciou Garlic Lovers Seasoning
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• Salt to taste
• 1 can chickpeas or 1 1/2 cups (250 grams) cooked chickpeas
• 2-3 Tbsp (30 to 45 ml) water
• Dash of ground paprika for serving

Directions:

1. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the tahini, lemon juice, oil, Deliciou Garlic Lovers Seasoning, cumin and chickpeas. Turn the food processor on and blend for at least 1 minute, scrape down the slides and blend again for another 30 seconds.
2. Most likely the hummus will be too thick or still have tiny bits of chickpea. To fix this, with the food processor turned on, slowly add 2 to 3 tablespoons of water until you reach the perfect consistency.
3. Taste for salt and adjust as needed. Serve hummus with a drizzle of olive oil and dash of paprika. Store homemade hummus in an airtight container and refrigerate up to one week.
