EGYPTIAN DUKKAH RECIPE



Egyptian Dukkah Recipe image

Quick, homemade Egyptian dukkah recipe with nuts, seeds, and a few warm spices. I like to use a combination of three nuts here (hazelnut, almonds and walnuts), but you can use just one if you like. Use dukkah as a snack; to coat meat, chicken or fish; or as a nutty finishing touch over soup, salad or even roasted vegetables. Store in tight-lid mason jar for up to 2 weeks.

Categories     Condiment

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup hazelnuts
3 tbsp almonds
4 tbsp white sesame seeds
3 tbsp shelled pistachios
1 tbsp fennel seeds
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
kosher salt

Steps:

  • Place the hazelnuts and almonds in a dry cast iron pan (do NOT add oil). Toast briefly over medium-high heat, tossing regularly, until the nuts gain some color (watch for nuts to turn a nice golden brown). Transfer to a side dish for now.
  • Place the sesame seeds in the same skillet and return to the heat. Toast over medium heat, tossing regularly, until the sesame seeds turn golden brown (this will be fairly quick so watch carefully).
  • Add the toasted nuts and sesame seeds to the bowl of a small food processor fitted with a blade. Add the pistachios, fennel seeds, spices, and a generous dash of kosher salt. Pulse for a few seconds until you reach a nice coarse mixture (Do not over process the dukkah. The mixture should not be too fine. See photos and video for exact texture).
  • Transfer the dukkah to a bowl to serve. Add a small bowl of extra virgin olive oil and your favorite bread for dipping (I like pita bread or even Jerusalem bagel). You can also store the dukkah in a tight-lid jar for up to 2 weeks to use as a topping for salad, soup, chicken, meats, or roasted vegetables!

SESAME SEED & ALMOND DUKKAH



Sesame seed & almond dukkah image

This coarse nut & seed mix was inspired by a favorite product at Trader Joe's. The most popular way to use dukkah is by first dipping bread into extra virgin olive oil. Then immediately dip it into a small bowl of dukkah. The seed & nut mix will adhere to the bread. Makes about 1 1/2 cups of dukkah. Calories listed are for the dukkah only, and do not include bread or oil for dipping.

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 teaspoons fennel seeds (whole)
2 teaspoons coriander seeds (whole)
2 teaspoons anise seeds (whole)
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1 cup almonds (dry roasted & unsalted)
1/2 teaspoon smoked salt (or kosher salt)
Extra virgin olive oil
Baguette (warmed, or pita bread)

Steps:

  • Bring a dry skillet to a medium heat. Add fennel seeds, coriander seeds, anise seeds, and sesame seeds. Cook for 2 or 3 minutes, until fragrant. Make sure to stir occasionally, so that none of it burns.
  • Put the seed mixture into a clean, dry coffee grinder or spice grinder. Pulse a few times. Be careful not to blend too much. You don't want it to turn into a powder. It should have a gritty texture.
  • Put the almonds, spice mixture, and smoked salt or kosher salt into a food processor. Put the food processor on low, or pulse until the dukkah has a mostly even, pebbly consistency. You may need to stop occasionally to stir, so that everything gets evenly mixed.
  • To serve, put a few spoonfuls of dukkah into a small dish. Pour extra virgin olive oil into a separate small dish. Dip the warmed bread into oil & then into the dukkah, so that the nuts & seeds adhere to the bread.
