Step 1

Soak the chickpeas in 6 cups of water for 5 hrs. Drain the water and keep it aside. Add the chickpeas to a cooker and add enough water to cover the chickpeas.

Step 2

Pressure cook them till they are tender. Alternatively, you can use a can of chickpeas instead of dried ones. Roast the Sesame seeds for about a minute and grind them into a powder.

Step 3

You can just use Tahini if you have some instead of roasting and blending sesame seeds.

Step 4

Combine chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and sesame paste in a food processor and blend until ingredients come together into a thick paste.

Step 5

With the food processor running, add a little water, about half a tablespoon at a time, until the hummus becomes smooth and creamy. Add salt and pepper, to taste.

Step 6

Transfer creamy hummus into a bowl . Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil just before serving and sprinkle with paprika.
