This recipe comes courtesy of the marvellous [[Nik and Edwina's Cookbook]]. It sounds fantastic, and has all of my favourite ingredients. I can't wait to try it out.

I'm also very tempted to re-jig this recipe for a [[Breadmaker|breadmaker]] - watch this space...

It seems wrong to add this recipe without their comments, so :

"''This is unusual and really rather lovely. It's the [[Sesame|sesame]] rather than [[Peanut butter|peanut butter]] that comes to the fore supported by the [[Cumin|cumin]]. It works well for sandwiches, as an [[Accompaniment|accompaniment]] to a [[Mezze|mezze]], it's great with [[Soup|soup]], or on its own with [[Olive oil|olive oil]] to [[Dip|dip]]. You can use either smooth or crunchy [[Peanut|peanut]] [[Butter|butter]] - we prefer the crunchy".''

{{RecipeIngredients
| 50g [[Tahini|tahini]]
| 80g [[Peanut butter|peanut butter]]
| 1 tablespoon freshly [[Ground cumin|ground cumin]]
| 1 teaspoon fine [[Salt|salt]]
| 2 long [[Red chillies|red chillies]] - fairly mild, charred over a flame
| 500g [[Strong white flour|strong white flour]]
| 1.5 teaspoon instant dry [[Yeast|yeast]]
| 15ml [[Vegetable]] or [[Olive oil|olive oil]] for kneading
| 5g [[Sesame seeds]] (not optional)

}}

===[[Mise en place]]===
* Preheat the [[Oven|oven]] to 220° C (425° F - gas 7)
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| Spoon the [[Tahini|tahini]], [[Peanut butter|peanut butter]], [[Cumin|cumin]] and [[Salt|salt]] into a large mixing bowl, and add 100ml of nearly [[Boiling|boiling]] water. Stir well
| Deseed the [[Chillies|chillies]], chop finely (leaving the charred bits on) and add to the [[Nut|nut]] mixture. Stir well and then add 200ml of cold water. Add the [[Yeast|yeast]], then mix in the [[Flour|flour]], to create a soft, slightly sticky [[Dough|dough]]. Give the dough a 10 second [[Kneading bread|knead]] on an oiled worktop and then return to the bowl. Leave for an hour
| Divide the [[Dough|dough]] into three. Shape into balls and roll into oval shaped sticks, about 30cm in length, using [[Flour|flour]] to keep it moving if needs be. [[Brush]] with water and roll in [[Sesame seeds|sesame seeds]] so both sides are covered. Place on a silicon sheet lined back tray, and leave to rise for 90 minutes, or until it's about 75% bigger
| Heat [[Oven|oven]] to 220C (200 for a fan assisted oven). Slash [[Bread|bread]] along each side with a very sharp knife and [[Bake|bake]] for approximately 30 minutes. The test for whether it's cooked or not is to take it out and knock the underside with your knuckles, if it makes no real noise it's not done and should go back in immediately, if it makes a hollow knocking noise, it's done.
