Dukkah Spice blend is an Egyptian spice blend that is made from ground nuts like almonds, hazelnuts or pistachios with added spices like coriander, cumin, sesame seeds, salt and pepper.
Some variations of this blend have added fennel seed and other spices or citrus zests. You can add them to this blend if you want. I like this blend because it isn’t overpowering but still delicious, it’s clean and simple. The more spices you add the busier the flavors become but that is completely up to you, optional add in’s are listed below with the recipe.
It is great when used with different proteins, vegetables or used with breads. I have a few recipes on here that use it that I will list below:
Grilled Dukkah Crusted Tuna
Dukkah Grilled Eggplant
Sticky Dukkah Chicken
