Dates pudding

Ingredients for 3-4 persons:

0.5 cups of dried pitted dates

1 pinch of turmeric (or saffron)

2.5 cups of milk

a little bit of cardamom

a little bit of ginger powder

4 almonds in skin (or pistachios)

1 tablespoon ghee

Blend dates and 1 cup of milk.

Boil the rest of milk, add cardamom, almonds, dry ginger and the contents of the blender. Then add ghee. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes on low heat.

*****

Almonds soaked overnight in water. Better to take charoul nuts, but I did not, so almonds were used.

If you are cooking with saffron, soak it for 10 minutes in a tablespoon of milk.
