Time 25m

Yield 8 snacks, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

400 g chickpeas (13oz rinsed and drained)
2 tablespoons tahini
1/4 cup lemon juice (60ml/2floz)
4 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup coriander (fresh leaves, cilantro 15g/1/2oz)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (60ml/2floz)
1 green capsicum (medium bell pepper)
2 tomatoes (medium ripe)
sea salt
pepper
celery rib (sticks to serve)

Steps:

  • Put the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, half the garlic and the cumin into a food processor and process until smooth.
  • With the motor running, add the coriander and olive oil and process until smooth, transfer to a bowl and then cover and set aside.
  • Cook the capsicum and tomatoes on a lightly oiled chargrill pan or barbecue plate until the skins have blackened and then transfer to a plastic bag and allow to cool and then peel the capsicum and tomatoes (the best way to do this is to put a cross in the bottom and plunge into boiling water for about 30 seconds, remove and peel), remove the seeds and finely chop the flesh.
  • Chop the remaining garlic and combine with the chopped capsicum and tomatoes and season with sea salt and pepper.
  • Spoon the capsicum mixture onto the chickpea dip and serve with celery sticks for scooping.
  • Serves 8 as a snack.
