Step 1

Mix 1/2 cup of the water, garlic, cumin, salt, lemon/lime juice and tahini in a saucepan. Slowly add the garbanzo flour, mixing as you go.

Step 2

Slowly add the remaining water, again mixing as you go. Adding slowly and mixing well so there are no lumps is key.

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a boil while stirring and turn down to a simmer immediately when it begins to boil. Keep stirring (it can scorch if you don't stir) and let it simmer for 3 minutes.

Step 4

Remove from the stove, pour into a lidded plastic bowl, cover with a thin coating of olive oil and either eat immediately or refrigerate.

Step 5

Serve with veggies, crackers or pita wedges.
