Don’t be tempted to cut corners here – it’s worth it to follow every step, just as I’ve laid out. You might think using tinned chickpeas (garbanzos) is quicker, but you won’t get the same result. Try to choose smaller chickpeas if you can; they are more suitable for hummus and give a creamier finish. You really do need a food processor for this one, and it will be working hard.

Next on Oded Oren's cooking list, try his pulled lamb shawarma with tahini and yoghurt dressing and herb salad.
