- 410g cooked or tinned chickpeas (keep some of the water)
- 30 ml olive oil
- Garlic powder (use sparingly)
- Salt to taste
Drain water from the cooked or tinned chickpeas (keep some aside).
Transfer the chickpeas into a blender.
Add olive oil, garlic, and salt.
Blend at high speed. You may find it difficult to achieve a smooth texture due to almost no liquid in the blender. Keep adding a little of the chickpea water until you achieve your desired smoothness.
If using as a dip, transfer to bowl and garnish with paprika, or parsley (if desired), or even add your favorite topping like cherry tomatoes (optional).
Serve with pita bread, or use as a spread.
