Ingredients
Scale
Base Mix
- 85g shredded wheat, crushed
- 200g pistachios, chopped
- 50ml honey
- Juice of ½ orange
Cream Layer
- 300ml pot double cream
- ½ × 250g pot Greek yogurt (125g)
- 50ml honey
- 2 tsp rosewater
Topping
- 110g pomegranate seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the base: In a bowl, combine the crushed shredded wheat, chopped pistachios, 50ml of honey, and the juice of half an orange. Mix gently to coat the dry ingredients evenly with the honey and juice mixture.
- Divide base into serving pots: Spoon the mixture evenly into 8 small glasses or teacups, creating the base layer of the dessert.
- Whip the cream: Whip the double cream until it reaches a very soft peak consistency, ensuring it’s light and airy but not overly stiff.
- Fold in yogurt and flavorings: Gently fold the Greek yogurt, the remaining 50ml of honey, and the rosewater into the whipped cream, maintaining the light texture of the cream mixture.
- Add cream layer to pots: Spoon the cream mixture evenly on top of the base layer in each glass or teacup.
- Chill: Refrigerate the dessert pots for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the cream to set, or up to 24 hours if preparing in advance.
- Garnish and serve: Just before serving, top each pot with fresh pomegranate seeds for a burst of color and tartness.
Notes
- This dessert can be prepared a day in advance and kept chilled, making it perfect for entertaining.
- For a nut-free version, replace pistachios with seeds such as sunflower or pumpkin seeds.
- Adjust the amount of honey to taste if you prefer it sweeter or less sweet.
- Use fresh pomegranate seeds for best flavor and texture; canned or frozen may be too watery.
