Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Crush the garlic. In a bowl mix the tahini, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, cumin and half the salt; whisk in the water little by little until the sauce is pourable and creamy.

  2. 2

    Thinly slice the red onion and rub it with the remaining salt. Chop the parsley, dice the tomato small and quarter the eggs.

  3. 3

    Put the drained beans on a wide serving plate, add two-thirds of the tahini sauce and fold gently without crushing the beans.

  4. 4

    Scatter the onion, parsley and tomato on top, drizzle with the remaining sauce and arrange the eggs.

  5. 5

    Warm the olive oil in a small pan for 30 seconds, add the pepper flakes, take off the heat and drizzle over the salad. Serve.
