Method1. Starting the day before you want to eat it, stone the dates, trying to keep them whole and place them in shallow glass dish (about 20 dates).2. Take seeds from cardamom pods and grind them, using pestle and mortar, end of rolling pin, etc and throw away pod, then sprinkle cardomom powder over dates, before adding the strong black coffee. 3. Leaving this dish 24 hours or so gives time for coffee and sugary dates to merge, making a kind of scented sauce with enlarged dates, which is a really good grown-up pudding served in small dishes or glasses with ice cream or thick yoghurt. |
