1 1/2 cups cooked or canned chick-peas, drained and
rinsed
1/4 cup tahini (ground sesame paste)
3 cloves roasted garlic (see note 1.)
1 chipotle pepper, canned in adobo (see note 2)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons honey
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 c olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Place the chick-peas, chipotle, cumin, honey, lemon
juice, and tahini in processor and process until
smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the oil
until emulsified. Add the parsley and season with
salt and pepper. May be erated for 1 day; serve at
room temperature. Make about 1 1/2 cups.
Notes:
1. To oven-roast a head of garlic, first cut off the
top. Rub the garlic with olive oil and sprinkle with
salt and pepper, wrap it in foil, and place it on a
baking sheet. Roast at 300 degrees F until soft,
about 45 minutes.
2. Canned chipotle peppers in adobo and ancho chile
powder are available at Hispanic or gourmet markets.

Then use pitas grilled and salted with kosher salt

Do you think they'll turn out well if I then fry (or sear) them in a pan? Thanks again. I always enjoy your recipes and regret that I've not stated so earlier.

tahini paste is pretty simple to make or buy. Can usually be purchaed from the India foods section at the supermarket.
If you make your own....take about 2 cups of sesame seeds and let them soak in water over night....then place on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. Place seeds in a food processor and add 3/4 cup olive oil.Blend to the consistancy of peanut butter. It can be stored for upto a month in an air tight container in the frig.

I know that people have used peanut butter in place of the tahini
