Ingredients

  • 70 g Semolina flour
  • 500 ml Almond milk
  • 60 g Pitted dates
  • 2 tsp Butter
  • 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • 20 g Shelled pistachios, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Honey

Method

  1. 1

    Chop the 60g of pitted dates small and roughly crush the 20g of pistachios. Once the pan is on, this pudding needs your hands on the spoon.

  2. 2

    Melt 2 tsp butter in a saucepan over medium heat, add the 70g of semolina flour and stir constantly for 2 minutes, until it smells nutty and turns a shade darker. This is what stops it tasting raw.

  3. 3

    Pour in the 500ml of almond milk a third at a time, stirring after each addition until smooth before adding the next. Add 1 tsp ground cinnamon with the last of the milk.

  4. 4

    Add the chopped dates and simmer over low heat for 6 minutes, stirring often, until the pudding thickly coats the back of the spoon and the dates have softened into it.

  5. 5

    Take the pan off the heat, stir in 1 tbsp honey, and divide between two pots. Scatter the crushed pistachios over and eat while it is still warm.
