On his day off, Hubster likes to mess around in the kitchen, especially on cold, winter days. He decides to come up with his own recipe of Roasted Almonds and Walnuts. Yes, I have permission to post this delicious and warm snack on our blog!
So without further delay, I present to you the recipe! As we say in Arabic, Sahtain (many know the French version Bon Appetit).
Hubster made me Cinnamon Tea as well.
Sportsboy, my 9 year old, designed this plate. He put his artistic touch to make a pattern, which turned out to look like a flower.
So without further delay, I present to you the recipe! As we say in Arabic, Sahtain (many know the French version Bon Appetit).
Ingredients:
You can determine how the size of the portions.
- Raw Almonds
- Walnuts
- Spices such as Saffron, Cinnamon, Chili Powder, Black Pepper, and Sea Salt
Put the Almonds and the Walnuts in the pan on low heat. Put about 2-3 ounces of water over the nuts. Add each of the spice listed above one at a time. Do NOT forget the Saffron because that is what makes it special. Keep stirring the ingredients. Cover for one minute to be sure the spices are soaked into the Almonds and Walnuts.
Be sure to uncover after one minute, and roast for another five minutes and don't forget to stir in between. Total time roasting: 10 minutes.
Did I mention that Hubster loves Dates? (In fact, we've always made sure Dates were available in our household).
Hubster said this image reminded him of his childhood, sitting at the beach, watching the waves and the boatings, while snacking on dates, and drinking tea.
I gave my Nikon to Sportsboy to practice taking photos. This is what he came up with. I think it is hilarious.
