To prepare the dough, place the flour in a large bowl, add salt and cardamom then add the margarine and knead well.

Dissolve the yeast in little water and add it to the mixture, then start kneading with the hands while adding the milk gradually until we have firm dough. Leave the dough to rise for 20min.

Prepare the filling meanwhile. Fry the dates with oil over medium heat and stir until it becomes like a dough then remove it from heat.
- 4
Add the cardamom to the fried dates and knead together. Set the filling aside to cool.

To prepare the kleijah, divide the dough into medium sized balls to make wide kleijah finger-like pieces. Then press your finger into the center of each dough ball while turning the dough in the palm of your other hand. This way a hole is formed in the middle of the dough. Fill the hole with the date filling then close the dough around it.

Sweetly-Simmered Kumquat, White Beans, and Sweet Potato Sweetly-Simmered Kumquat, White Beans, and Sweet Potato
This simmered dish makes the best of the flavor of seasonal kumquats. Since slicing the kumquats into thin slices causes them to fall apart, they are cut in half. In order for the white kidney beans (boiled and canned) not to fall apart, they are added last. This creates a semi-sweet and delicious simmered dessert.Steps 3-4: When boiling, gently stir the bottom of the pot occasionally so that it doesn't stick.Step 3: When covered with the lid, you should wedge a toothpick underneath it so that the steam can be released.
