Instructions

  1. Blend the drained chickpeas with the tahini, the juice of two lemons, the garlic and the salt for 2 minutes.
  2. Gradually add the ice-cold water while blending until smooth and creamy.
  3. Set aside a few broad beans for the topping and roughly mash the rest with a fork.
  4. Spread the hummus in a deep plate, make a well in the centre and spoon the mashed broad beans into it.
  5. Drizzle generously with olive oil, sprinkle with cumin and paprika, then top with the whole broad beans.
  6. Serve with warm flatbread and the remaining lemon.

Variations and tips

Without tahini. Replace the tahini with plain Greek yoghurt for a lighter version that is just as creamy.
