Ingredients

2 To 3 medium cloves garlic,

Sliced [I use more, but I

Love garlic!]

1 lrg handful parsley

2 Healthy scallions, in 1-inch

Pieces

3 cups Cooked chick-peas

6 tablespoons Tahini [First I cut down to

One, now I just use a few

dr Chinese

6 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice [I use

Quite a lot more - one or

Two whole lemons,

Squeezed]

3/4 To 1 tsp. salt (to taste)

1 Cayenne and a little cumin,

To taste [she says optional,

But I don't!]

Preparation

1

1) Place garlic, parsley and scallions in a food processor or blender, and mince.

2

2. Add chick peas, tahini [or oil], lemon juice, and salt, and puree to a thick paste. [I grind the chick peas separately first, it makes life much easier].

3

3. Season to taste with cayenne and cumin. Transfer to a tightly lidded container and chill.

4

The green colour can be a bit disconcerting at first, and it does taste a bit different, using sesame oil instead of tahini. But it is still good, I feel.
