Here is the another tasty Lebanese dish.. We have it in Turkey as well with same name "Humus", it is an appetizer, we call this kinda dishes as "Meze".. Hummus mean in arabic "chick peas ". Mostly famous in arab countries but also in Turkey, Greece,Syria serve it as traditional food. While you are preparing it, the taste is detarmined by how to order the ingredients. For example; if you add garlic while you are mashing the chick peas , you will taste garlic more light..
Ingredients
1,5 cups dry chickpeas (around 300gr)
3 cloves of garlic crushed
1/2 cup tahin ( crushed sesame seeds)
1/4 cup lemon juice
Salt & pepper
1/2 cup tahin ( crushed sesame seeds)
