Steps

To make the Toast with Hummus and Tuna

First, start by opening the can of cooked chickpeas and draining them completely of their water using a strainer or pasta colander.
Next, take a tall pitcher, like a beaker, and put the drained chickpeas inside along with the oil, lemon juice, turmeric, paprika, and parsley.
At this point, take the immersion blender and activate it inside the pitcher until you form a smooth cream. Essentially, by doing this, you have already created the hummus.
Next, heat the electric grill pan and once it reaches temperature, toast the slices of rye bread on both sides until dark stripes appear.
To finish, spread a generous amount of hummus directly on the slice of bread to cover it completely using a spatula.
Finally, garnish the surface with drained canned tuna, chives, fresh mint, and a drizzle of raw oil! Now you can finally serve your toasts.
