Pam's Curried Hummus was a HUGE hit in the cooking class, making this recipe now a standard at our house.  So simple, yet so good!

1. Place the water and chickpeas in a food processor.  Process until smooth.    

2. Add the tahini, minced garlic, roasted garlic, toasted curry powder, lemon juice, paprika, sea salt, and pepper. Process until smooth.  The mixture should not look grainy at all. 

3. With the processor running, slowly add the olive oil until incorporated.  

The mixture should be very smooth at this point.   Taste and adjust lemon juice and seasoning if necessary.

Serving suggestions:  This is a great year-round dip and can be served with a variety of seasonal crudités, pita chips, or rice crackers.
