Okara Hummus - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup okara
    1 lb canned chick-peas (about 1 1/2 cups)
    1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    3 garlic cloves
    1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (more if you like a thinner hummus)
    1 tablespoon tahini
    salt and pepper
Preparation
    Saute the garlic cloves in olive oil until golden brown. (This eliminates the garlic \"kick\" that a lot of people find offensive, and the flavor of roasted garlic adds a warm taste to the hummus.).
    Add the chickpeas to a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
    Add all of the other ingredients. Adjust the seasonings to taste.
    Serve with raw vegetable crudites, crackers, or toasted pita points.
