GRILLED PEACHES WITH DUKKAH AND BLUEBERRIES

Grilled Peaches With Dukkah and Blueberries image

Dukkah? It's an Egyptian blend of nuts, seeds and spices, which you can either buy or make yourself. Combine it with a grilled ripe peach for a superlative summer experience, especially with freshly whipped cream and a scattering of blueberries. Simply dab the cut fruit with some olive oil and place on a hot grill until lightly toasted and soft. The result is reminiscent of peach pie without the crust, warm and yielding, with just a hint of char.
