Turkish Coffee
Ingredients
- 2 tsp finely ground coffee
- sugar, (optional, according to taste)
- water
Instructions
- Measure two Turkish coffee cups of water and pour into a small brass Turkish coffee pot (cezve).
- Add the finely ground coffee and sugar (if using), and stir until well combined.
- Place the cezve over low to medium heat. Stir occasionally until the coffee begins to foam but does not boil.
- Once the foam rises, remove the cezve from the heat. Carefully spoon some of the foam into the Turkish coffee cups.
- Return the cezve to the heat and let it foam again. Repeat the process one or two more times to develop a thick, rich foam.
- Pour the coffee into the cups, ensuring an even distribution of foam.
- Serve immediately with a glass of water and dates or other sweet treats.
- Tip: Serve with stuffed figs, apricots and dates
