🍬 Rahash (Tahini Fudge)

Method

1. Line a small square tray with baking paper and set it aside.

2. Melt the 2 tbsp ghee in a pan over low heat and add the 1/2 cup flour.

3. Toast the flour for 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until golden and fragrant.

4. Let the flour cool for 5 minutes until just warm.

5. In a bowl, mix the 1 cup tahini with the 1 cup finely ground sugar and 1 tsp ground cardamom, plus saffron if you have it.

6. Add the toasted flour and knead by hand until the mixture holds together like a soft dough.

7. Press the mixture into the tray 2 cm thick, smooth the top with the back of a spoon, and sprinkle with pistachios or sesame if you have them, pressing them in.

8. Refrigerate the tray for 2 hours until the rahash sets.

9. Cut the rahash into small squares and serve, storing the rest in an airtight container.
