How to cook
Plating & presentation
Use the back of a large spoon to create a swoosh across the plate, building a well in the centre. Fill the well with olive oil, add a pinch of paprika, and scatter a few whole chickpeas and fresh parsley.
Dana's tip
Blending for a full 3–4 minutes is the single most important step. Most people stop too early. The extended blending breaks down the chickpea skins and creates that restaurant-quality smoothness.
