Soak white chickpeas overnight for at least 6-7 hours.

Transfer soaked chickpeas to a pressure cooker and add a small amount of water and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Close the pressure cooker and cook for 3-4 whistles.

In a separate pan, heat approximately 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil.

Add 10-12 cloves of garlic to the hot oil and roast until golden brown, stirring occasionally.

Once the garlic is roasted, turn off the heat and let it cool.

Release the pressure from the cooker and check that the chickpeas are cooked well.

Transfer the cooked chickpeas to a grinding jar along with the roasted garlic and the olive oil used for roasting the garlic.

Add salt, cumin powder, and 1/2 cup yogurt to the jar.

Grind the mixture into a smooth paste, checking and mixing occasionally to ensure even grinding.

Add lemon juice and chickpea stock to the mixture and blend again until smooth and creamy.

Serve the hummus in a plate, creating a small well in the center.

Drizzle olive oil into the well and garnish with roasted garlic and chickpeas.

Optionally, sprinkle chili flakes on top.
