Step 1
Combine chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and 0.25 cup ice water in a food processor.
Step 2
Blend until completely smooth, ~2 minutes, scraping sides as needed. Add more water if too thick.
Step 3
Transfer to a shallow bowl and use the back of a spoon to create a well in the center.
Step 4
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, ~90 seconds.
Step 5
Add ground lamb and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, ~5 minutes. No pink remains.
Step 6
Stir in cumin, coriander, sumac, and black pepper. Cook until fragrant, ~1 minute.
Step 7
Spoon warm spiced lamb into the well of the hummus. Drizzle with olive oil. Serve warm.
