Directions
1. Bake the pita bread chips until golden in color and place in a deep dish.

To make the Tahini sauce :
3. Add yogurt, Tahini, Lemon juice, Salt, Garlic and the hot chili peppers if you are using them and mix to a smooth finish.

5. Heat up the chickpeas with the water until boiling.
FINALIZING
6. Put the bread chips in a deep dish.
