    Mortar and pestleorKnife
  2. 2
    Mix the tahini, smoked paprika, lemon juice, garlic and cumin.
  3. 3
    Gradually add cold water while stirring, until the sauce is creamy.
    💡When you add the first water, the tahini thickens and looks like dough: that's fine. Keep adding water and stirring, and it loosens into a smooth sauce.
  4. 4
    Spread the tahini on a flat plate, drizzle the olive oil on top and sprinkle with the paprika.
