skinnymixer's Middle Eastern Dukkah

I like to keep a batch of Dukkah in the freezer for when guests drop in, or I need to put together a quick thank you gift in a small jar. 

While I love serving it with crusty bread and good quality olive oil, I tend to use it to crumb lamb cutlets, steak and chicken. It makes a super yummy alternative to boring bread crumbs, you wont feel like you are missing out at all. I hope you all love it,

Love Nik xx

  1. Hi, can’t wait to try this. Just wondering if there is a reason you store in the freezer? I’ve always kept my Dukkah in the pantry. Also, how do you defrost?

    Thanks!

  2. This dukkah is amazing. I didn’t have nigella seeds so didn’t add. It was still perfect. A quick, easy recipe to whip together when friends come around. Skinnymixers never fails!

  3. This is delicious! I made with cashews instead of almonds (as was serving to a friend who is allergic to almonds). Couldn’t seem to find nigella seeds so used some extra cumin seeds, put paprika through half the batch which was also delicious!
    Thanks for another yummy and easy recipe!

    1. Sumac is a Middle Eastern spice. It is a dried deep red berry that is crushed and has a lemony taste. It is pretty much available at major supermarkets in packages but if you go to a specialist Middle Eastern shop you can buy it in bulk. It is generally not very expensive but you can add it to a whole range of dishes. Even just sprinkling it over white rice adds a great flavour. We are never without a big jar in our house.

    1. Nigella seeds are the little black seeds you usually find sprinkled on Turkish bread.
      They look very similar to black sesame seeds but have a slightly bitter taste .
      Have never found them in supermarkets but gourmet fruit & veg shops and continental delis have them.
