In the bowl of a food processor or blender, combine the chickpeas, olive oil, lemon juice, tahini, garlic, salt and cumin and process or blend until smooth. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water to help smooth out the mixture and to obtain your desired consistency. If you are using a blender, you'll likely need a little more water than if you are using a food processor.
