  Deviations: I added peanut butter instead of tahini sauce and I soaked chick peas overnite and boiled it instead of using canned garbanzo beans.
  
  Results: The chick peas still had a very raw taste and didn't improve much even after I added more lemon juice and salt! Maybe the trick is in the tahini sauce :(
