  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      cup           chickpeas -- dry
   5      cups          water
   6                    bay leaves -- or so
     3/4  cup           chopped onion
   1                    garlic clove
     2/3  cup           tomato puree
   2      tablespoons   lemon juice
     3/4  teaspoon      ground cumin
     1/4  teaspoon      paprika
     1/8  teaspoon      cayenne
     1/4  teaspoon      black pepper
     3/4  teaspoon      salt

Sort and rinse the chick-peas, then soak overnight in water.  Drain
them, then add 5 cups of water and bay leaves.  Bring to a boil, then
reduce the heat to medium and cook for approximately 1 1/2 hours, or
until the beans are completely soft.  When cooked, drain the beans and
puree until completely smooth in a food processor with the rest of the
ingredients.
