Place chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt and red pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Process with short pulses to combine, scraping sides of container now and again, until mixture becomes a coarse paste. Taste and adjust flavour with more lemon juice and/or salt, if desired. Continue to process, adding a little water, if necessary, to obtain a texture just smooth and soft enough for dipping.
