    Steps

    1
    Done

    Drain and Rinse Garbanzos. Do not Use Can Juices For the Liquid in This Recipe. They 'muddy' the Flavour of the End Result.

    2
    Done

    Put Garlic, Tahini and Salt in a Blender or Food Processor and Buzz Until Ingredients Are Well Mixed (10-15 Seconds).

    3
    Done

    Add Garbanzo Beans (one Can at a Time) and Blend After Each Addition. You Can Reserve a Few Whole Beans For Garnish.

    4
    Done

    Add Lemon Juice and Blend.

    5
    Done

    Add as Much Water as You Need For the Consistency You Like. I Usually Use It All, Unless the Lemon Is Ultra Juicy.

    6
    Done

    Spread Hummus on a Flat Plate. Create a Bowl Shape by Elevating the Edges With Hummus.

    7
    Done

    Drizzle Olive Oil Over the Hummus, Sprinkle With Paprika and Garnish With Reserved Whole Beans and Chopped Parsley.

    8
    Done

    Serve With Flat Arabic Bread. It's Nice to Toast the Bread Lightly in the Oven.
