5 tb Lemon juice
1/4 c Tahini

Cut the top off of the head of garlic, exposing the
cloves. Place in a small microwave-safe bowl and drizzle
with oil. Add 1 tablespoon water to the bowl, then cover
with plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH for 2 1/2 to 3

cloves of garlic from papery skin.

In a food processor, combine garlic cloves, chickpeas,
roasted peppers, lemon juice, tahini, hot pepper sauce,
salt, cumin and 1/4 cup water. Process until very smooth
and mixture has an even texture. Add more water for a
creamier dip. Refrigerate until serving, then garnish with
chopped parsley. Serve with pita wedges.

NOTE: Tahini (sesame seed paste) is sold in supermarkets
or health food stores near other Middle Eastern foods.
