 1 cup celery, finely chopped (optional)
 Salt to taste
Garnish
 Finely chopped parsley
 Paprika

Instructions

1

On low heat, sauté the onion in the olive oil until soft.

2

Add the garlic slices and sauté until golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

3

Process the chickpeas with the lemon juice and mayonnaise in a food processor until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.

4
