In this comforting Turkish version of hummus the chickpea purée is warmed in the oven and topped with pine nuts. In the authentic version, a generous amount of melted butter would be drizzled over the top before baking. I have substituted a moderate amount of olive oil for the butter.

Time 35m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 garlic cloves
2 cups cooked chickpeas (if using canned, rinse thoroughly)
Salt to taste
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, lightly toasted and ground
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice (more to taste)
3 tablespoons sesame tahini

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but I was able to tone it down by reducing the amount of cayenne pepper. Other than that, it was a great recipe and the hummus was very flavorful.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The hummus was bland and lacked flavor. I think it could have used more lemon juice and garlic.
