What to serve Spiced beans with feta and dukkah with:

We enjoyed this lovely dish on its own with warm pitas to scoop it up. You could add more protein by serving it with poached eggs on top. Or you could poach the eggs directly in the sauce for the final few minutes of cooking time.

This is also fabulous piled on top of pita or flatbread (that you top first with hummus or beetroot dip) and then top with feta and bake for 10 minutes.

Homemade garlic bread

A simple green salad or steamed greens

I hope this recipe for homemade Spiced beans with feta and dukkah helps to keep things delish and inspiring in your kitchen.
