DUKKAH

Steps:

• In a dry cast iron pan over medium heat toast the almonds and the coconut until golden, then transfer to a food processor. While the nuts and coconut toast, in another smallish cast iron pan, toast the coriander, cumin, and sesame until fragrant. Watch the spices closely; a moment's inattention can cause them to burn, forcing you to suffer, feel badly about the horrible waste, and start over. Transfer to a spice grinder/coffee grinder and grind to a fine powder. Process the almond/coconut mixture until it's finely blended. Add the toasted spices, plus the s&p. That's it. Serve it in a beautiful smallish bowl, alongside a beautiful small saucer of olive oil and a basket of bread torn into small pieces. Instruct your guests to take a small piece of bread, dip it into the olive oil, then dip into the dukkah. Prepare to leave suffering behind! Goes great with champagne.

DUKKAH

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 325ºF (170ºC). 2. Place the hazelnuts and pistachios on separate rimmed baking sheets and roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. 3. Remove from the oven. Immediately tip the pistachios onto a plate. Immediately wrap the hazelnuts in a clean kitchen towel and set them aside to allow the steam to build for a minute, then vigorously rub them in the kitchen towel to remove the loose skins. (It’s okay if not all the skins come loose. Trust us, this is no time to be a perfectionist. Also, this is going to make something of a mess.) Let cool. 4. When both the pistachios and hazelnuts are cool, roughly crush them until sorta chunky in a mortar and pestle. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. 5. Place the coriander and cumin seeds in a skillet set over medium heat. Toast the seeds, shaking the pan from time to time, until aromatic, about 2 minutes. Remove the seeds from the pan and crush them using the mortar and pestle. Add to the bowl with the nuts. 6. Place the sesame seeds in the same skillet and return to medium heat. Toast until lightly golden, giving the pan a shake occasionally, at least 45 seconds and up to 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and grind them in the mortar and pestle and add to the nut and seed mixture. 7. Repeat this process with the white or black peppercorns. 8. Lightly grind the chile flakes in the mortar and pestle and add to the nut and seed mixture. 9. Finally, add the salt and mix everything together. The spice blend can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

• In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the sesame seeds until light golden brown. Pour into a medium bowl as soon as they are done so they will not continue toasting. In the same skillet, toast the coriander and cumin seeds while shaking the pan or stirring occasionally until they begin to pop. Transfer to a food processor. Process until finely ground, then pour into the bowl with the sesame seeds. Place the cooled hazelnuts into the food processor, and process until finely ground. Stir into the bowl with the spices.

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Place the carrots on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with melted butter, season to taste with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Roast until the carrots are tender and just beginning to brown, about 25 minutes. Let the carrots cool slightly.
• Transfer the carrot mixture to a blender. Add the vegetable broth. Blend mixture until soup is very smooth, 1-2 minutes. Pour the soup into a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Add water by 1/4-cupfuls to soup for a thinner consistency, if desired. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper.

DUKKAH CHICKEN

Steps:

• First, combine all of the marinade ingredients in a medium sized bowl.
• Marinate the chicken strips in this mixture for at least one hour.
• Preheat oven to 180ºC, and line a baking tray with waxed paper.
• Put all of the breadcrumb ingredients in a food processor, and give it a few quick pulses, to mix the cheese through evenly (If you're using powdered cheese, you can skip this step, and just put it straight into a bowl, and stir it through with a fork).
• Dip each piece of marinated chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, being sure to coat it thoroughly and evenly.
• Place the chicken pieces on the baking tray, and give them a quick spray of olive oil.
• Bake at 180ºC for 25 minutes, then turn them all over, and give them another 15 minutes.

DUKKAH-CRUSTED SALMON WITH CUCUMBER AND CHILE SALAD

Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook the salmon, turning every 3-4 minutes, for 10-12 minutes or until just cooked through and the crumb is golden. Place the chilli, extra oil, lime juice, garlic, cilantro, salt and pepper in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Add the snow pea tendrils and cucumber and toss to coat. Divide the salmon and salad between serving plates and top with chervil to serve.

DUKKAH

Steps:

• Firstly toast the nuts in a hot oven for about 15 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
• Toast the spice seeds and sesame seeds separately in the same way.
• Cool and combine with the remaining ingredients in a food processor.
• Grind the mixture until it resembles small breadcrumbs.
• The mixture should be very dry and crumbly, not a paste.
• Be careful as over processing can release the oil from the nuts making the mixture moist, which you don't want.
