Hummus topped with an aromatic lamb mince is a traditional dish from the Middle East.
Whether as a starter or a small meal, this is a show stopper hummus.
If you havent tried this before, youre in for a real treat!

Hummus with Lamb (Hummus Blahmeh) is one of my favourite Middle Eastern starters.
There are many versions of this dish across the Middle East.
During my days in corporate, I was often sent to Dubai where my company had an office.
Though only an hour from Dubai, Sharjah couldnt be more different.
But its got the culture the real culture of the Emirates.
No booze, no posh restaurants, no 6 star hotels.

And of course, the best real local food for pennies.
How to find the best food in a non touristy area?
Theres no Lonely Planet guide for dining in Sharjah.

There are no tourist maps.
Have you ever done that?
But somehow I doubt Ill ever cross paths with anyone in that joint again.
And boy was it worth it!
And after the first bite, I never looked at hummus the same again.
I truly hope you give this a try.
Also, real hummus is made starting with dried chickpeas.
Ive made this simple by using canned chickpeas.
Love to hear what you think if you try it!
