Today I am sharing a very quick and easy recipe: Macadamia Dukkah. Quick and easy for sure, and also incredibly delicious!
What is dukkah, you say? It is a Middle Eastern condiment consisting of a mixture of herbs, nuts, and spices, typically used as a dip with oil and bread. However, you can also sprinkle it on soups, stews, casseroles, poached or scrambled eggs, cooked rice. The possibilities are endless!
Today’s recipe uses macadamia nuts, which add a touch of Australia to the dip and also make it Low Fodmap… yeah, right?
As I said, this is a very easy recipe to make. It only requires some roasting/toasting, crushing, and mixing. It makes for a great addition to your holiday spread and you could even gift it for Christmas in pretty little jars. Don’t say I never give you good ideas eh??
