Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 cups cooked garbanzo beans (or equivalent amount of canned beans, rinsed well and drained-save cooking liquid)
- 2 tbsp currants (soak into the hot water for 10 minutes then drain) or 2 tbsp barberries (soak in hot water for 10 minutes then drain)
- lemon slice
Directions:
- Note: I never peel the garbanzo beans (even though I know I should). Directions are given below for peeling the beans.
- Add the garbanzo beans, olive oil, lemon juice, cinnamon and salt to a food processor and process until mixture is smooth. If necessary, add some of the cooking liquid to help blend the mixture better.
- Stir in the pine nuts and currants.
- Arrange on a platter. For presentation, arrange a few lemon slices around the edge of the dip and lightly garnish with a small amount of finely minced parsley or dill.
- Serve at room temperature.
- How to peel the garbanzo beans: soak the beans in hot water for about 5-10 minutes. Then gently rub them with the palm of your hands while they are still in the water.
