Ingredients

1	cup	chickpeas (garbanzo beans)	dried
1/4	teaspoon	baking soda
2	teaspoons	tahini
1/3	cup	water
1	each	lemon	juice only
1/4	cup	olive oil
2	cloves	garlic
1/2	teaspoon	coriander	optional
1/2	teaspoon	cumin	optional
1	x	salt and black pepper
1	x	parsley leaves	fresh, chopped

Directions

Wash the chick-peas, then soak overnight with the baking soda in cold water to cover.

The following day, drain and wash the chick-peas, then cover with fresh water.

Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until tender, 1-1/2 to 2 hours.

Drain and push through sieve or food mill, discarding the coarse fibers remaining in the sieve.

Meanwhile, put the tahini in a small bowl and beat it with the 1/3 cup water until dissolved, using a whisk or fork.

Beating briskly with the whisk, add the tahini mixture, a teaspoonful at a time, to the chick-peas, alternating with the lemon juice and olive oil.

When all has been added, crush the garlic over the mixture and sprinkle with optional spices, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon chopped parsley.

Beat for another minute, then taste for seasonings and chill overnight - if possible.

Serve cold, sprinkled with additional chopped parsley.

Easy Chocolate Pie

This is the easiest & best tasting Chocolate Pie I've tasted. I've shared this recipe with several of my friends & family. I could not believe I was able to prepare this pie in about 5 minutes. This is a major plus for me as I work a full time job & not a lot of time for cooking. GREAT recipe.
