Ingredients

- 1 ½ spoon of Tahini.

- 1 red pepper.
- 2 garlic cloves.
- ⅓ cup of extra virgin olive oil.
- 1 teaspoon of paprika.
- Salt and ground pepper.
- ⅓ teaspoon ground cumin.
Instructions
- Place the chickpeas in a bowl, add plenty of water and let them soak overnight.
- Boil the chickpeas in plenty of water for ~ 90 minutes, until they get soft.
- Place the red pepper on a tray and bake it in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius (360 F) for ~ 20 minutes until the skin starts becoming black. Let it cool down, remove the skin and set the flesh aside.
- Add all of the ingredients in a food processor and create a smooth paste. This may take a few minutes. Try it from time to time to check if it needs any more seasoning, olive oil or lemon.
- Enjoy the hummus with lots of pita bread.
