Steps:
- 1. Put everything except the parsley in a food processor and begin to process; add the chickpea liquid or water as needed to allow the machine to produce a smooth puree.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large heavy, preferably cast-iron, skillet over high. Pat beef (or vegetarian alternative) dry with paper towels, then press into an even layer in skillet with a spatula. Season with coriander, pepper, cinnamon, and 1 tsp. salt and cook, undisturbed, until a brown crust begins to form underneath, about 6 minutes. Turn, break beef into pieces, and continue to cook, stirring, until just cooked through, about 1 minute.
- Meanwhile, toss tomatoes, parsley, lemon juice, and remaining 1 tsp. salt in a medium bowl.
- Divide hummus among shallow bowls. Using the back of a spoon, smooth into an even layer, then create a wide divot in the center. Spoon spiced beef and tomato mixture over, then drizzle with oil and sprinkle with Aleppo-style pepper, if using. Serve with lemon wedges, hot sauce, pickles, and pita alongside, if using.

Steps:
- Place chickpeas in a medium pot and cover with water by 1". Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, undisturbed, until chickpeas start falling apart, about 20 minutes. Reserve 1 cup cooking liquid, then drain chickpeas.
- Transfer chickpeas to a food processor. Add garlic, lemon juice, tahini, salt, and 2 Tbsp. reserved cooking liquid and process for a full 5 minutes (set a timer for this) until creamy and smooth. If at any point the hummus appears dry or very thick, add cooking liquid 1 Tbsp. at a time. With the motor running, stream in oil and process just until combined. Transfer to a medium bowl and drizzle with more oil.
- Do Ahead: Hummus can be made 5 days ahead. Let cool, then cover and chill.
EPICURE HUMMUS
There are a lot of hummus recipes out there but I couldn't find my specific version anywhere which is super easy to make and remember. I got it off the back of a bottle of epicure spices and tweaked it over the years and started using fresh ingredients. I always get rave reviews on my hummus and am usually commanded to bring it to any social functions. EDIT: I just realized that I use a 19 oz. can and not a 28 oz. can although my garlic measurements are for the 28 oz. can everything else is the same. I will have it amended accordingly.
