Boil the chickpeas including the liquid. (If you cook the chickpeas yourself, add water with a little salt until the chickpeas are covered).
Peel the garlic clove and crush it with a little salt to a pulp.
Add lemon juice (freshly squeezed) and cumin to the garlic.
Add the tahini and water to the garlic.
Mix everything together well until everything has become a homogeneous sauce.
Strain the chickpeas. Add a third of the hot chickpeas to the sauce and press down very roughly, add the rest of the chickpeas and mix everything together and season with salt. Divide into bowls and garnish with olive oil and paprika powder.
