1/2 cup fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1-inch piece fresh ginger, chopped
1/4 cup tahini
2 tablespoons almond butter (optional)
juice from 1 lemon
2 fresh green or red chilies, seeded and chopped
1 teaspoon turmeric

1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped
1 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste

Steps:

  • Rinse the chickpeas and soak for 8 hours or overnight covered in several inches of water with a little yogurt whey or lemon juice added. Drain and rinse, then transfer to a large saucepan. Cover with several inches of fresh water, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and cover. Simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until the beans are buttery soft. Drain.
  • In a food processor, combine all of the ingredients and process until you have a thick, smooth paste. You may need to add extra olive oil or a bit of water if you want a thinner paste.
