Hummus: two ways - kofta version from Falastin: A Cookbook (page 36) by Sami Tamimi and Tara Wigley

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Chopped salad: three ways - original version (Salata Arabieh 1); Chopped salad: three ways - tahini version (Salata Arabieh 2); Chopped salad: three ways - yoghurt version (Salata Arabieh 3); Pita bread (Khubez)

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Eat Your Books

    Chickpeas need to soak overnight. Can substitute veal mince for beef mince, and any other chilli flakes for Aleppo chilli flakes.

    I just made the kofta mixture to go with leftover hummus from a party. I ran out of time to roll meatballs and am glad I opted to brown it unformed — as written this is quite bland. I added 1 teaspoon each salt and ground cumin and coriander, and 1/2 teaspoon each Bursa chile and dried mint. Much better, and great on warm hummus.

    Used veggie minced meat to make it vegan, added a bit of breadcrumbs to the mixture. We loved it!
