Hummus

The hummus I made for Wil's party seemed to be well received, so here you go:

Ingredients
  • 450g Chick peas (Garbanzos- this is the standard jar size here in Spain)
  • 2/3 cup Tahin
  • 2/3 cup Olive oil
  • 1 Lemon, squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 2 cloves of Garlic, crushed
  • Salt (to taste)
How to do it:
  • Rinse the chick peas
  • Put everything in a pan/bowl
  • Blend it with a hand-blender
  • If it is too thick, add a small amount of water and blend again until it is how you like it
  • If oil starts to come to the surface after a while - get some more chick peas and blend them in
