Ingredients
1 tin chickpeas, they are generally 400g
½ a clove of garlic
2 tsp tahini paste
½ tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp natural yoghurt
1 tbsp olive oil
a pinch of salt and a pinch of cracked black pepper
Method
Use a tin opener to open the tin of chickpeas. Pour the liquid from the tin into a bowl and keep it for later. Ask a grown-up to help as the edges at the top of the tin might be sharp.
Crush your garlic.
Put the chickpeas into your blender. Add the crushed garlic, the tahini, lemon juice, yoghurt and olive oil to the blender. Pour in half of the liquid from the chickpea tin. Add your salt and pepper. Turn on your blender and blitz everything together until it is a smooth paste. If it is dry, or too thick add some more of the liquid and blitz it again. Taste and see if you need to stir in a little more salt and pepper.
