Hummus
From Linda's Kitchen

1 Can Chickpeas ( 2 Cups) 2 Cloves Of Finely Minced Garlic
1/4 Cup Of Lemon Juice Salt To Taste
1/2 Tsp Ground Cumin Drizzle Of Olive Oil
3 Tablespoons Of Tahini Paste Pinch Of Sweet Paprika
-(ground Sesame Seeds) Tsp Of Chopped Parsley

1. Place the chickpeas, lemon juice, ground cumin, tahini and garlic in a food processor. Puree until the mixture is quite smooth but has a little texture. If the Hummus is a little too thick, you can add some of the juice from the canned chickpeas or add a splash of water.

2. Taste for seasoning: add salt if needed.

3. Remove and place in serving dish. Just before serving, drizzle with olive oil, a pinch of sweet paprika and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.

To serve: Hummus is best served at room temperature so you can taste the full flavour of the simple, yet delicious ingredients. Hummus is often served with grilled flat bread, naan bread or grilled pita bread alongside a bowl of olives and pickled vegetables. Great appetizer before dinner. This Hummus will keep refrigerated for 3 to 4 days, but remember to bring it out one hour or so before serving so that it comes to room temperature.
