A delightful twist on traditional hummus, this dip combines the tangy flavor of tamarind with creamy chickpeas for a unique and delicious appetizer.
Combine the chickpeas, tahini, tamarind paste, ginger, salt, pepper, lemon juice, garlic, and water in a food processor.
For a creamier texture, blend for an additional minute.
Process until smooth, adding more water if needed to achieve the desired consistency.
Scrape down the sides of the processor to ensure even blending.
Transfer the dip to a serving platter and garnish with chopped cilantro, parsley, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Serve with warm pita bread or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
