Ingredients:

Serving

1 red bell pepper , roasted and peeled
2 tbsp sesame seeds
15 oz garbanzo beans, drained, skins removed
1/4 cup water or 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 garlic clove
salt
pepper
cayenne pepper

Directions:

Toast sesame seeds in hot dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until seeds turn golden. Put them in the food processor and pulse until you don't hear them anymore.
To the food processor add the roasted pepper, chickpeas, lime juice, garlic clove, and however much salt, pepper and/or cayenne pepper you like.
Run the food processor until it is pureed and smooth (albeit thick), then stream in as much water or oil as you like to get it to the consistency you want.
Refrigerate until needed. You can freeze the unused portion.
Garnish with additional sesame seeds and cayenne if you like, and serve with warm toasted pita bread, lavash, cut into serving pieces or crackers or crudites.
