The complex, sour-sweet flavours of pomegranate molasses (available in Middle Eastern and fine food stores) give this dip a tangy edge. If you can't find it, use 3 tbsp (50 mL) lemon juice and 2 tbsp (25 mL) liquid honey instead. Serve with pita chips.

Ingredients

  • 2 cans (each 19 oz/540 mL) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tbsp pomegranate molasses
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh mint
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp hot pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup minced red onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Preparation

In food processor, pulse together chickpeas, oil, pomegranate molasses, all but 1 tsp (5 mL) each of the mint and coriander, the cumin, salt and hot pepper flakes until combined but still a bit chunky. Pulse in onion; stir in garlic. Scrape into serving bowl. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.) Sprinkle with feta and remaining mint and coriander.
