COUSCOUS WITH DATES, RAISINS, AND ALMONDS



Couscous With Dates, Raisins, and Almonds image

This is a slightly sweet recipe of middle eastern origin. You can add more sugar if you like, but for those wanting to cut down on sugar and fat, this is a great way to indulge in a bit of sweet with an ethnic flair.

SWEET HONEYED DATE NUT COUSCOUS WITH TAHINI NOTE



Sweet Honeyed Date Nut Couscous With Tahini Note image

There's this delicious couscous mix I get at the prepared foods section of my favorite gourmet shop, and it inspired to make my own mix with my own couscous. This would make a nice alternative to oatmeal for breakfast, and a nice dessert with Middle Eastern flair. Creamed honey is really the absolute best for this but if you don't have it, don't fret-- just use regular honey of your choice. A beautifully flavorful dish that looks very complicated and elegant but is not at all hard to prepare, would be wonderful for dinner parties or international night.

Time 30m

Yield 4 1/2-cup servings, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup couscous (real couscous, not instant)
1 tablespoon tahini
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom (or 2 pods)
6 large pitted dates, chopped into pieces
1/3 cup slivered almonds
4 tablespoons creamed honey

Steps:

  • Bring 2 cups of water to a boil, and salt it a little. Add the tahini, cardamom and cinnamon blend it in, letting the flavors impart. Lower the heat and add the couscous, cover and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes.
  • When the couscous is fully cooked, fluff it with a fork and drain any excess water.
  • Put into a serving bowl and mix well with the chopped dates and almonds.
  • Add the creamed honey and just stir and stir, like you're melting butter over rice. Sir like normal if using regular honey.
  • Add extra cinnamon and cardamom to taste. Serve with hot mint tea and enjoy.
