Recipe type: christmas
Ingredients:
  • ½ cup sesame seeds
  • ⅔ cup (110 grams) hazelnuts
  • 2 tbs cumin seeds
  • 2 tbs coriander seeds
  • 2 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 1 tsp sea salt flaked
  • Serve with: extra virgin olive oil and crusty bread!
Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
  2. Once oven is heated, place hazelnuts on a tray lined with baking paper and toast the nuts for around 3 - 4 minutes.
  3. Place hazelnuts on a clean tea towel and rub off as much of the skin as possible. A few of the nuts had skins that were very hard to get off, so I just toasted them for a little longer and the skin then came off easier.
  4. Place hazelnuts into a bowl and using a stick blender (or food processor if you have one) grind nuts until they are finely chopped. Pour into a large mixing bowl.
  5. Place sesame seeds into a frying pan and toast lightly for a couple of minutes on a medium heat. Stir constantly until they turn a golden colour. Add the sesame seeds to the hazelnuts.
  6. In the same frying pan add cumin and coriander seeds and toast the seeds for a couple of minutes until the spices start to smell beautiful!
  7. Using a mortar and pestle grind the cumin and coriander seeds in small batches. Add to the hazelnut mixture once they are finely ground, then add salt and pepper to the bowl and mix well.
  8. Serve with fresh crusty bread and olive oil and enjoy!
