Instructions
1
Grinding into a paste
Soak the walnut kernels in hot water, peel them, and chop them finely; peel and pit the small red dates, wash the rice, then grind them together with 500 ml of water into a paste — the finer, the better.
2
Filtering
Add another 500 g of water to the ground paste, pass it through a fine sieve to remove the residue, and pour the liquid into a pot.
3
Cooking
Bring to a boil over high heat, add the white sugar, return to a boil, and skim off the foam.
4
Portioning
Divide evenly into 12 small bowls and serve.
