Ingredients

480 g cooked chickpeas
90 g tahini
45 g lemon juice
6 g garlic
60 ml ice-cold water
1 g cumin
4 g salt
27 g olive oil
1 g paprika
5 g parsley

Instructions

Drain the cooked chickpeas; for an extra-smooth hummus, slip off their skins between your fingers.
Blend the tahini and lemon juice in a food processor for a minute until thick and pale.
Add the garlic, cumin and salt and blend, then add the chickpeas and process for 2-3 minutes.
With the motor running, add the ice-cold water a little at a time and blend for 2 minutes more until silky and light. Adjust the salt and lemon.
Swirl the hummus onto a shallow plate with the back of a spoon, drizzle with the olive oil and finish with the paprika and chopped parsley.
