2 -3 tablespoons tahini
1 lemon
water

1. Drain water from beans, rinse beans, then place on stove top and bring to boil.
2. Mean while place garlic, and jalapeno in bowl, and mash the two of them.
3. Drain boiled beans, and add on top of garlic and mash until you get a thick paste.
4. Add lemon juice and tahini, mix together.
5. Gradually add water until mix becomes to a good consistency.
