About

This is so simple I am almost ashamed to include it in a sophisticated cookbook. But it is so good I’d be more ashamed to omit it. Best with home-made yogurt, but still good with the commercial kind.

Ingredients

Method

Spoon the yogurt into serving dishes. Chill well. Just before serving cover the top liberally with cream (not whipped, just as it is), then scatter over it almonds and dates.

Trickle a little honey all over everything and serve at once.
