Drain the chickpeas, reserving some of the liquid for later. Rinse them well in a strainer.
Peel beet and chop into large pieces.
Chop garlic into a few large pieces.
Place chickpeas, beets, garlic, tahini, lemon zest and lemon juice, salt pepper and sumac in the food processor. Pulse and process into a smooth paste, scraping the sides as needed.
Add olive oil, and pulse a few times until blended.
If the result is too thick, add a couple tablespoons of reserved liquid from the can and blend again.
Place in a serving bowl, drizzle top with a teaspoon olive oil and a dash of sumac or sesame seeds.
