Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Blend the Ingredients

    In a food processor, combine the cooked chickpeas, tahini, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and water. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  2. 2

    Adjust the Consistency

    If the hummus is too thick, add more water, one tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

  3. 3

    Add Harissa

    Stir in the harissa for a spicy kick and blend again briefly to incorporate.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl, drizzle with extra olive oil, sprinkle with paprika, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with pita bread or fresh vegetables.
