Serves 6 to 8

Ingredients


  • 2 Tbsp. flavorless oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 pound ground beef (85 percent lean)
  • 1 tsp. Aleppo pepper
  • 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1/4 tsp. ground allspice
  • Black pepper
  • Hummus (homemade or store-bought)
  • Tahini Sauce (see separate recipe)
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
  • 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds
  • Zhoug (see separate recipe)
  • Chopped, fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish
  • Pita chips, for serving

    Directions
    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the beef and sprinkle it with the Aleppo pepper, cinnamon, cumin, allspice, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few turns of black pepper. Cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon or spatula, until it is fully cooked and no longer pink. Taste and adjust seasonings, as desired.

    Spread the hummus in a serving bowl and top it with the beef. Drizzle on the tahini sauce and sprinkle with the pine nuts, pomegranate seeds and zhoug. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with pita chips.
