Method
- Remove the skin from the chickpeas by gently pinching them until the skin comes off. Discard the skins and reserve the chickpeas.
- Place de-skinned chickpeas in a blender or food processor with garlic, olive oil, water, tahini/sesame and salt. Blend or puree until very smooth, adding the remaining water one tablespoon at a time if the mixture is too sticky to move through the blender. Once the mixture is going, you can stream in a little bit more olive oil to help achieve a super creamy texture.
- Top it with some lemon juice, olive oil and chilli powder just before serving the dip.
- Serve on pitas, crackers, veggies, or sandwiches. Adjust seasonings as you like!

Tips
- For a smoother and creamier texture, remove the skins from the chickpeas by gently pinching them.
- If you want to store it long, while blending do not use water and use only olive oil.
