Method

  • step 1

    Drain the can of chickpeas, keeping the water. Gently warm in a microwave, then tip into a food processor with the lemon juice, olive oil, tahini, ground coriander and crushed seeds from the cardamom pods. Blend until smooth – add a splash of chickpea water if it's looking a little dry. Check the seasoning and add more oil and lemon juice to taste. Serve sprinkled with toasted pine nuts and sumac.

Lots of negative remarks, maybe there is something wrong with your taste buds and not the recipe. I suggest a quick trip to the palate doctor.

Not sure about the cardamom seeds in this recipe - gave it a slightly odd taste I thought.

Inedible. Tastes of oil and tahini. Find another recipe.

Wish I’d looked at the comments first. Total disaster, inedible. Way too much lemon. Maybe I’ll just stick to my own, not using a recipe.

This was a disaster. Made to the amounts listed. Too runny, too much lemon and oil. Tastes awful.
