In our previous episode we made authentic tahini paste. Today we're going to use this to make authentic hummus.

Ingredients
400g Can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
30ml Tahini paste
1 Clove garlic
2.5ml Salt
45ml Olive oil
25ml Lemon juice
Chopped coriander leaf and lemon zest to garnish

Instructions
1. Thoroughly rinse the canned chickpeas and measure out the tahini paste, salt, extra virgin olive oil and lemon
juice. Peal and roughly chop 1 clove of garlic.
2. Place all of these ingredients into a tall jug and process until smooth using your stick blender. You can also do
this in your food processor. If you're using stick blender lift the head of the blender to clear the blades after each
pulse to avoid damaging the unit.
3. Once you're happy with the texture, transfer the thick paste to a bowl. Drizzle this with a little extra olive oil and
mix this in. Continue adding oil until you achieve your desired consistency.
4. Serve dressed with a little chopped coriander, fresh lemon zest and a drizzle of olive oil.
5. Stay tuned for our next episode where we're making authentic falafel, accompanied with sesame sauce and
hummus.
