Ingredients for Makes approx. 2 cups

2 cups canned chick peas, drained or the same amount fresh cooked (19oz) reserve some juice if needed
2/3 cup tahini
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 cloves mashed garlic
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cumin
2 tbsp white vinegar
parsley for garnish
olive oil

15 min · Easy

Directions

1. Place chick peas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt and cumin in food processor. Mix until smooth. The hummus may be a bit thick, so thin it out by adding a bit of oil or liquid from the can of chick peas.
Using the liquid from the can obviously makes it a low fat hummus recipe, but the oil adds a lovely richness to the hummus that is my preference.
Refrigerate.
Just before serving sprinkle chopped parsley on top.
