Ingredients
150
grams
tahini paste
1
lemon - the juice
1
clove
garlic
1/2
cup
water or more if a more runny consistency is preferred
1
Tablespoon
olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Put the tahini paste, lemon juice, garlic and water in a bowl and use a blender or food processor and mix well.
Check the flavor and the consistency – it should be runny enough to easily drop off a spoon
Add more lemon if required (as well as adding flavor, this will thicken the sauce)
Add more water if the consistency is not as creamy and runny as required – this will make the sauce runnier
Add the olive oil
Taste as you add the seasoning
Serve with toasted pita bread at the beginning of the meze
