| Am starting off the Christmas Season with Easy Stuffed Dates / A Date For Christmas – Stuffed Dates – something so simple that even a child could make it. My Mum told me that her mother used to make this for them at Christmas time every year, the only difference being that the almonds were stuffed with dates dipped in ghee. Dates featured heavily on their menu as boatloads of dates would come in from the Gulf to Coondapoor (Kundapura now), as it was called half a century ago. And the traditional gift to all was a big packet of dates with some oranges thrown in. |
This is an appealing and attractive addition to any Christmas Party.
The Recipe:
50 dates; 50 almonds
With a sharp knife, make a slit horizontally down the centre of each date. Remove the seed and replace it with an almond. Repeat until all the dates are stuffed with almonds. Serve as a Sweet Treat for Christmas or during any party.
