Ingredients
2
cups
uncooked fava beans
1
cup
cooked or canned chickpeas
1
heaped tbsp. tahini
1
tbsp.
lemon juice
season to taste
2
garlic cloves
1
tsp.
dried oregano
1
tsp
.dried thyme
garnish with black sesame seeds
garlic and fresh thyme
Instructions
Into a bowl add your fave beans and cover them with water. The Bob's Red Mill ones don't take long to soak so I only left them in water for 3 hours.
Once they've soaked, drain them and cook in boiling water for around 25 minutes. Make sure to strain and drain this liquid.
Into a food processor add all your ingredients and blend for 2-3 minutes or until silky smooth.
Tip: if you want that extra extra silkiness add 2-3 tbsp. of freezing water to the mixture while blending.
Notes
Will last in a tight sealed container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
