Halawat Nahar Khuz
Halawat Nahar Khuz is treated here as a glossy Iraqi date-and-nut sweet, rich with cardamom and sesame. The mixture is cooked until thick, pressed into a tray, and cut into small squares so each bite tastes of dates, toasted nuts, butter, and warm spice.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Warm butter or ghee in a pan and add chopped dates with a pinch of salt.
Cook and mash until the dates form a thick paste, then fold in cardamom, rose water, walnuts, pistachios, and sesame.
Press the mixture into a lined pan and smooth the top while warm.
Cool until firm, cut into squares, and garnish with extra pistachios.
