Sesame Bars
 

INGREDIENTS

  • 15g fine oat flakes
  • 75g pitted dates
  • 10g ground almonds
  • 10g flaked almonds
  • 20g white sesame seeds
  • 30g cashew butter

METHOD

Lightly toast the oats in a dry pan while you blend the dates in a food processor.

Use your hands to knead the oats, processed dates, almonds, sesame seeds and cashew butter to create a dough.

Place on a sheet of baking paper, cover with a second sheet and roll out to a thickness of approximately 5mm using a rolling pin.

Cut into 6 bars and let these firm up in the fridge. These will keep in a container in the fridge for at least 10 days.

Samkeh Harra (fish with tahini sauce and nuts)

‘Fish doesn’t have to be boring—my mother taught me that. Samkeh harra translates to “spicy fish,” though it’s more about a gentle kick than true heat. It’s a perfect balance of creamy, nutty tahini and the crunch of golden, roasted nuts. Oh, I do love nuts! I usually overload my plate so you almost can’t see the fish anymore, but that’s me. The nuts bring a deep, toasty richness that elevates the dish into something truly irresistible.’
