- 8 large chuhara (dried dates), pitted & sliced
- 1 tsp kalonji (onion seeds)
- 1/2 tsp salt
Directions:
- Add all ingredients into a clean bowl. Stir and allow to marinade for a few minutes or at least an hour. Store in an air-tight, sterilized jar.
- Keeps well for up to 2 weeks, refrigerated.
Disclaimer: This sweet, salty, spicy and garlicky goodness comes with a warning. There’s raw garlic in this, a copious amount of garlic. So if you are planning a date thereafter, good luck getting rid of that garlicky breath.
Personally, I’d postpone all my appointments and just enjoy what ever this jar of garlicky goodness has to offer.
