Makanek Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sausages

    In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, cinnamon, allspice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.

  2. 2

    Shape the Sausages

    Form the meat mixture into small sausage shapes, about 4 inches long. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sausages

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until browned and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Hummus Base

    On a serving plate, spread the hummus into a thick layer to create a base for the sausages.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Once the sausages are cooked, place them on top of the hummus. Drizzle with pomegranate molasses, sprinkle with toasted pine nuts and chili flakes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve with fries and warm pita bread on the side.
