Ingredients:
1 x 400g tin chickpeas, drained (liquid reserved)
2tbsp olive oil
1tsp smoked paprika

1 large garlic clove, minced
Salt & pepper to taste
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

Method:

Place chickpeas, olive oil, smoked paprika, Za’atar seasoning blend, garlic, salt & pepper and lemon juice in a food processor and blend for 3-4 minutes until smooth. Whilst the motor is still running, start slowly adding the chickpea water – a little at a time – until you reach the desired consistency.
