Dessert with almonds and pistachios

4 servings

30 minutes

This Indian dessert is reminiscent of its relative - nan-khati, shortbread cookies with the addition of semolina, which are prepared in every home on holidays. In this recipe, flour and semolina are replaced by ground almonds, and this makes the dessert brighter and more aromatic, with an interesting bitterness.
