6 servings
- 2 cans (15 oz each) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- ¼ cup tahini
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1 large lemon)
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- ¼ tsp black pepper, freshly ground
- ½ tsp salt, plus more to taste
- 3–4 tbsp ice water
- ¼ tsp smoked paprika (optional)
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, roughly chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
In a small skillet over medium-low heat, warm 1 tbsp of the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and just softened, about 1–2 minutes. Watch closely — garlic can brown quickly. Remove from heat and let cool for 2 minutes.

Add the drained chickpeas, tahini, remaining 2 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, turmeric, cumin, black pepper, salt, and the cooled garlic-ginger mixture to a food processor. Process for 1 minute until the mixture is roughly combined.
