One step at a time

Let’s make it

  1. Put beans, oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, salt, and water in a food processor.
  2. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides once or twice.
  3. Add more water a teaspoon at a time for a soft, scoopable consistency.
  4. Transfer to a serving bowl and scatter parsley over the top.

A little kitchen know-how

Raw garlic grows stronger as the dip sits, so start with the small clove listed.
