6 tablespoons tahini

Istruzioni

Blend chickpeas

Place the cooked chickpeas, aquafaba, garlic, and ice cubes in a high speed blender or food processor, and blend on high power until everything is combined and creamy.

Blend hummus

Scrape the sides and add the tahini, fresh lemon juice, kosher salt, and ground cumin. Blend again on high power until the mixture becomes a pale ivory color and very creamy.

Chill hummus

Spoon the hummus into a shallow bowl, spread it out with the back of a spoon, and place in the fridge while you make the meat topping if you want the hummus to firm up.

Toast nuts

Place a fry pan or skillet over medium heat and add the ghee and pine nuts. Stir continuously until the pine nuts turn golden brown. Remove the pine nuts and set aside.

Brown meat

Turn the heat to medium high then add the cubed meat, Lebanese seven spice, salt, and black pepper to the same fry pan with the remaining ghee. Toss together and let it cook, undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes until it browns on one side.

Add nuts

Stir the meat and continue cooking until the juices evaporate and the lamb is browned on all sides. Reduce the heat to low and add the toasted pine nuts back in and toss together for a minute.

Garnish and serve

Transfer the sizzling hot lamb and pine nuts on top of the hummus. Garnish with cumin, aleppo pepper, cooked chickpeas, and fresh parsley if desired. You may also add extra virgin olive oil on top. Serve immediately with warm pita bread.
