Add to a powerful blender and grind on low with water, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and seasonings (garlic, onion powder, etc) until well mixed.  Then, ultra puree the mix until smooth.  A similar result can be achieved with a food processor, but lower powered blenders (less than 1kw) will probably require adding more water to the mix.

Garnish with olive oil, a few whole beans and paprika.  Serve with tortilla chips or fresh vegetables.
