Preparation of the Chickpea Cream with Paprika
Put the well-drained chickpeas in the measuring cup (or blender glass), add the water and the oil.
Add the garlic, salt, paprika, and blend well until you get a creamy mixture. Personally, I leave it slightly grainy, but you can blend more to get a completely smooth cream.
With the help of a spatula, pour the chickpea cream with paprika into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before using!
You can use the chickpea cream with paprika to enrich sandwiches and wraps, spread it on toasted bread or crackers, and you can also eat it alone with a spoon because it’s delicious!
