Next Level Hummus

[Twitchin Kitten]

OK, this is a little something of a mashup of Greek and Middle Eastern cuisine. Everybody loves hummus and I can't think of anything better than this. Well, except if I did the meat along the lines of Middle Eastern instead!

Next Level Hummus

ingredients:

• 1lb. ground lamb
  
• 1 small onion finely diced
  
• 3 cloves minced garlic
  
• Zest from half a lemon
  
• 1/4 tsp allspice
  
• 1 Tbsp. ground cumin
  
• 3 Tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped fine
  
• 2 Tbsp. fresh mint, chopped fine
  
• 1/2 tsp. salt
  
• 1/2 tsp. pepper
  
• handful of Feta cheese
  
• fresh made hummus (recipe HERE)
  

Prepare your hummus and put in the 'fridge to set up.
Prepare all your ingredients that need chopping for the meat. Set the Feta aside for later.

In a bowl, combine all the ingredients EXCEPT ONIONS for the meat and knead until evenly blended. DO NOT add the Feta to this mixture.
While you are preparing the meat, saute onions for a few minutes until the just start to turn clear. Once they are turning clear, throw in that lamb.
Chop up the lamb but be careful to leave it in large chunks. Saute this fast and hot until it's cooked through and browned.

Put a layer of hummus on a plate and top off with the meat mixture. Sprinkle the Feta on top.
Serve hot with warm Pita bread.

*variation: sprinkle toasted pine nuts on top with the Feta or instead of the feta
