6 cups sprouted chickpeas
For the Tahini Sauce:
2 medium lemons, peeled and quartered
1 cup tahini(I use soaked organic fairtrade sesameseeds; source of Ca:)
1 medium red onion
3 cloves garlic
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/2 cup fresh coriader leaves
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/3 cup cold-pressed olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt

1. Put the sprouted chickpeas in a food processor and blend well. Remove to a large bowl.

2. To make the Tahini Sauce: Put the lemon first, then the remaining ingredients, in a blender and blend well.

3. Pour the Tahini Sauce into the bowl with the chickpeas and mix well. Taste and adjust the seasonings. VoilĂ !

Ideally, serve with some ubber fresh leafy greens:)

Thanks for sharing this Cosmic - my husband is always on the outlook for the magic formula for a houmous. Gotta try this!

Your welcome, Lovely! Tip! if you are making this for this raw, vegan and living dish for the first-time take inspiration from S Asia and add in loads of ripe tomatoes, red onions, fresh coriander(cilantro), fresh ginger to create a living raw curry. I served this with some raw prganic pointed cabbage to a mate(Indian background) and he loved it!Let it marinade for as long as possible. Tip! you may not need all your chickpea sprouts!

Bonne Appetite!
Let us know what you think, good or bad!
