Grilled Green Asparagus with Lemon and Red Dukkah

Red Dukkah is a flavor bomb – toasty, crunchy, and deeply aromatic. Made with roasted sesame seeds, almonds, and warming spices, it’s the kind of blend that instantly transforms whatever you sprinkle it on. Especially vegetables. It adds texture, depth, and a bit of magic – taking even the simplest dishes (like this one) to the next level.

Here, crisp-tender grilled green asparagus meets zesty lemon, a touch of oil, and a generous shower of Red Dukkah. The result? A quick, delicious side that tastes like sunshine on a plate.

No green asparagus on hand? No worries – swap in carrots, cauliflower, or whatever veggies you have in the fridge. Red Dukkah plays well with almost anything.
Serve it as a starter, as part of a mezze spread, or alongside grilled fish, meat, or your favorite BBQ dishes.

Green asparagus (you can also use white asparagus, cauliflower, or carrots)
1 lemon
A little oil
Red Dukkah
Salt
Fresh dill

Preheat the oven on grill setting – or use your outdoor grill.

Rinse the asparagus and snap off the woody ends.

Place them on a baking tray, toss with oil and lemon juice, and sprinkle generously with Red Dukkah and a little salt.

Grill until lightly golden and still with a bit of bite.

Top with fresh dill and serve while warm.

Serve them just as they are – or give them a little extra love with creamy burrata on top, some new potatoes on the side, or a slice of toasted bread with hummus.

Enjoy!
