Healthy breakfast with dried cranberry jam easy to make and.... without sugar.
This recipe is inspired by the Mediterranean flavours of Turkey, where tahini and dried fruit are used in both sweet and savoury food. Brazil nuts create a creamy texture and combined with the pine nuts, are an alternative to a traditional lamb kofta. Perfect served in warm pitta bread with a salad and houmous! Adjust the amount of chilli to taste.
