Preparation Instructions

1. Make the Hummus

In a food processor, combine the canned chickpeas, tahini, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and water. Blend until smooth.

2. Adjust Consistency

If the hummus is too thick, add a little more water or olive oil to reach your desired consistency.

3. Serve

Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle paprika on top, and serve with crispy pita chips.
