Dukkah
Morris Mansour shares this dukkah recipe with Food Safari's Maeve O'Meara.
Dukkah is an Egyptian dry mix of roasted nuts, seeds and spices blended finely together. Traditionally dukkah is eaten by dipping fresh Egyptian bread first into olive oil and then into the nut mixture but it also serves as a versatile seasoning in Egyptian cooking.
