Steps:

• Coat chicken with flour.
• Heat oil in large deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.
• Add half of chicken; brown about 5 minutes per side.
• Remove from skillet.
• Repeat browning step with remaining chicken, adding onion.
• Return all chicken to skillet.
• Combine cinnamon, cumin, ginger and turmeric in small bowl; add to chicken.
• Stir to evenly coat chicken and onions with spices; saute 1-2 minutes.
• Stir in broth, lemon juice and salt; bring to a boil over medium heat.
• Reduce heat to medium-low.
• Stir in dates and almonds and cook, covered, for 20 minutes.
• Uncover and simmer another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• 2. Heat a large sauté pan on high, and add olive oil. Add almonds to pan, toast for 1 minute stirring often, and reduce heat to low. Continue to stir until the almonds are light golden brown, 6-7 minutes. Add honey and spices, salt and sesame seeds and stir to coat evenly.
• 3. Spread nuts out evenly on to a large sheet tray and place in the oven until honey is dry, 10-15 minutes. Allow nuts to cool before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter, almonds, sugar, honey, almond extract, egg, cinnamon and nutmeg. Gradually add in the flour to form a dough (knead with clean hands if necessary-it can be sticky). Refrigerate dough for about 10 minutes, or until it is slightly firm.
• Pour seeds into a small bowl. Pinch off a walnut sized ball of dough and roll it in the sesame seeds to coat. Then, take the ball and roll it between your palms into about 2 in long pieces, tapering the ends .
• Place side by side on a cookie sheet , curving them into crescent shapes. Bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown, being careful not to burn.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment.
• Whisk together egg white, salt, cumin, and paprika in a bowl, then add almonds and toss to coat. Spread almonds evenly on baking sheet and roast until golden, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer nuts on parchment to a rack and cool completely (almonds will crisp as they cool). Loosen nuts from parchment with a spatula and transfer to a bowl.

Steps:

• Put the almonds in a bowl and sprinkle with the smoked paprika.

Steps:

• Cut the cauliflower into small florets. Fry olive oil, ground cinnamon, cumin and coriander and harissa paste for 2 mins in a large pan. Add the cauliflower, stock and almonds. Cover and cook for 20 mins until the cauliflower is tender. Blend soup until smooth, then serve with an extra drizzle of harissa and a sprinkle of toasted almonds.
