Directions
Step 1
Prepare McKenzie's Chick Peas according to either of the methods on the packet. Drain well.
Step 2
Puree chick peas in a blender or food processor. Add remaining ingredients (except pepper) and blend together. Slowly add 3/4 - 1 cup water until a smooth creamy consistency is reached to your liking.
Step 3

Tips: Serve with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of McKenzie's Paprika. Not only does this make a great dip, try spreading on warmed pita breads before topping with cooked chicken or lamb, tomato slices and shredded lettuce for a tasty souvlaki. Thin down this recipe slightly with extra water making a delicious sauce to accompany a salad, grilled chicken breast, baked potatoes, grilled fish or steamed vegetables. A great after school snack served with fresh carrot, celery and red capsicum sticks.
