Prep Time 20 Min
Buttery dates blend well with creamy toasted pine nuts to give a robust relish that pairs well with beef or pork.
Prep this relish before you start grilling to give the ingredients time to blend. You can also prep this well advance to give time for the ingredients to marinate completely.
What you need (for a cupful – any excess says fresh for a week when refrigerated.)
8 green onions, thinly sliced
1 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
2/3 cup chopped pitted Deglet Noor dates
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon peel
2 teaspoons (about) minced seeded deveined habanero chili.
1tablespoon grated ginger
Crushed seeds of five cardamom pods
What to do
Combine all ingredients except habanero chile in medium bowl; toss to blend. Add chile to taste. Season relish to taste with salt.
