Method

  2. Step 2

    Spoon a teaspoon of hummus in the centre of each square and roughly spread. Sprinkle
  3. Step 3

    Brush vegetables with oil. Place a small handful of vegetables running from one corner to another corner so it sits diagonal along the square.

  • Dukkah is an Egyptian fragrant roasted spice and nut blend that is traditionally served with olive oil and fresh bread.
