This is one of our favorites, just watch everyone fight over the almonds. Ingredients:
1 cup rice, just cooked |
50 g butter |
50 g almonds, blanched and halved |
8 dates, stoned (they should be fresh, but dried ones will do, if plump) |
50 g sultanas |
1 teaspoon rose water (but this can be omitted) |
Directions:
1. While the rice is standing, after cooking, melt the butter in a frying pan. 2. Add the almonds, stirring until they turn golden. 3. Now add the dates and sultanas, and cook, stirring, for a few more minutes. 4. Remove from the stove and mix in the rose water, if used. 5. Pile the rice on a dish and arrange the mixture on top of it. |
