Sweet Potato and Garlic Mash with Dukkah
Dukkah is one of those infinitely tweakable spice mixes which liven up anything from a slice of buttered toast, a bowl of yoghurt to grilled fish, veg or meat. Originally from Egypt, its base is a mix of nuts and grains, toasted and then crushed with spices. Here, its aromatic crunchiness goes beautifully with the sweet silkiness of the sweet potato. Add some feta, labneh or a dash of yoghurt to give a little zing and freshness to the dish.
