Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: Greek
Keyword: lemon hummus recipe
Servings: 4
- Juice and zest of one lemon
- 1 (19 fluid ounce) can chickpeas drained
- 2 heaping tablespoons tahini
- 2-3 cloves garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- Water (if needed)
- Salt & pepper to taste
Add all ingredients to a food processor except for the oil.
Blend on high, slowly drizzling in olive oil for about a minute, or until smooth. I usually end up stopping, scraping the sides down, and blending longer. If needed (like if the mixture is too dry), add water gradually while blending on high (start with 1/4 cup or less) until the consistency you want is reached.
Serve immediately or chill it first. I like to serve this hummus with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkling of smoked paprika.
