The Perfect Hummus

Ingredients:
(One jar)

1 can chickpeas (Napoli from Sainsbury's is best)
1 tbsp tahini
1/2 juice of lemon
1 garlic clove (optional)
1 tsp ground pepper corns

Equipment essential:
Food processor
1 reused jar

Equipment optional:
Lemon squeezer
Garlic press
Spatular

Drain the liquid from the chickpeas into a small jar or jug, place all the chickpeas in to the food processor, add the lemon juice, tahini, pressed garlic (or just place whole peeled cloves in), and ground pepper corns. Then blitz on medium for a few seconds. Then add about 3 tbsp of the chickpea water and blitz on high power until smooth and creamy. (You may need to pause half way through the second blitz to scoop some of the mixture down off the sides of the food processor, just use a spoon or spatula)
Then remove chopping adapter and scoop humus into a jar, and your done!
