To make the hummus, combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and blend, adding extra olive oil as needed, until a smooth consistency is reached. Season to taste and set aside.
Step 2.
Heat olive oil in a frying pan, add onion and sauté until translucent. Add cumin, coriander and cinnamon and fry off for 1 minute before adding lamb mince. Sauté until cooked through and season to taste.

Spread the hummus in a round shape on a serving plate, leaving a slight hollow in the centre. Spoon the cooked lamb mince into the hollow and top with pomegranate, chilli, pine nuts and mint leaves to serve.
