Step 1
Add chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper to a food processor.
Step 2
Blend until smooth and creamy, ~2 minutes. If too thick, add water 1 tbsp at a time.
Step 3
Transfer hummus to a serving bowl and use the back of a spoon to make a shallow well in the center.
Step 4
Heat remaining 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high until shimmering, ~90 seconds.
Step 5
Add ground lamb with cumin and cook, breaking up meat with a spoon, until browned, ~5 minutes.
Step 6
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Spoon warm lamb mixture into the well on top of hummus.
Step 7
Serve immediately with pita or vegetables.
