POMEGRANATE GRANITA
Steps:
- Mix the pomegranate juice, lime juice, simple syrup and tequila.
- Place the mix intro a freezer friendly container.
- Put it in freezer for about 1 hour, then remove it and use a fork to mix it up.
- Put it back in the freezer and repeat an hour later, it will start to get harder so you will need to use the fork to scrape it until it has that crystal granita texture. Repeat one more time.
- Put it back in the freezer, before using it let it stand at room temperature for about 3-5 minutes and then use a fork to scratch it up before serving.
- Garnish with fresh pomegranate arils.
POMEGRANATE AND ROSE GRANITA
The rose petals look lovely here, but don't worry if you can't get hold of any. With the pomegranate seeds there, the granita looks wonderful without them. Be sure to leave enough time for the liquid to properly freeze into crystals, about 8 to 10 hours.

Steps:
- Add sugar and 7 tablespoons/100 milliliters water to a small saucepan and place over high heat. Stir continuously, until sugar has dissolved and the liquid comes to the boil.
- Add mint, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 1 minute, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and set aside to cool, about 20 minutes. Strain the syrup into a large bowl, pressing on the mint to extract the water. Discard the mint.
- Whisk the pomegranate juice and rose water into the syrup until combined. Pour into a container and freeze for 2 to 3 hours, until clumps form and the edges are solid. (The shallower the container, the shorter the freezing time.) Use a fork to separate the crystals and freeze for another 2 hours. Repeat with the fork again, scraping the tines across the frozen mixture, and continue this process until the liquid has frozen into separate crystals throughout, about 8 to 10 hours total.
- Just before serving, divide the granita between small glasses and sprinkle with the pomegranate seeds and rose petals.

POMEGRANATE GRANITA
Granita is a cool, sorbet like desert. I'm slightly addicted to granita's and I had one pomegranate left at home so this is what I made with it. Basically it's one pomegranate per person if you would like a descent size desert. The original recipe was found on http://fooddownunder.com/ but it has been dramatically modified

Steps:
- Slice off the top and bottom of the pomegranates, then break them apart and remove the seeds. With your hands, squeeze all of the juice out of the seeds, then push the mixture through a sieve, pressing down gently to extract as much juice as possible without pushing the bitter skins through.
- Discard the seeds. In a large shallow glass baking dish that will fit in your freezer, combine the juice with the sugar and stir until the sugar has dissolved (place the pan over a very low flame if desired to speed the dissolving of the sugar). Freeze for 4 hours, stirring every 15 minutes.
- Scrape the surface of the ice with a spoon into large flaky crystals.
- Refreeze if desired. The granita should be served as a chunky ice, not a smooth sorbet.

FALOODEH (PERSIAN LIME AND ROSE WATER GRANITA WITH RICE NOODLES)
Faloodeh is an ancient Persian dessert, a sort of granita threaded with rice noodles and spiked with rose water and lime. Though you may typically cook noodles until al dente, you'll need to really cook them through here before adding them to the syrup so that they soak up enough liquid to become as crunchy as possible as they freeze. In Iran, most ice cream shops sell just two items: traditional saffron ice cream and faloodeh, which is typically topped with bottled lime juice that tastes mostly of citric acid. Faloodeh has been my favorite since childhood, but now I prefer it with the juice of freshly squeezed limes. It's incredibly refreshing and the ideal end to a rich meal filled with complex flavors.

Steps:
- Place 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and set over low heat. Add about half the sugar and stir to dissolve completely. Add 1/8 teaspoon salt and the rest of the sugar and continue stirring until completely dissolved. Take off the heat and let cool to room temperature.
- In a freezer-safe bowl or dish, stir together 4 cups water, cooled syrup, lime juice and rose water, then place in freezer until ice crystals begin to form on the edges of the mixture, about 1 hour.
- In a medium pot, bring 4 quarts water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook thoroughly until there is no bite left, about 8 minutes or as instructed on the package. Drain and rinse immediately with cold water. Use scissors to cut noodles into 1-inch pieces, then stir them into the partly frozen syrup mixture. It's important that the mixture has begun to freeze before adding the noodles so that they don't all sink to the bottom of the dish, so if your syrup mixture needs more time, freeze for another hour before adding noodles.
- Every hour for the next several hours, scrape the granita thoroughly with a fork to prevent huge icy chunks from forming. The mixture should be light and airy, punctuated with crunchy noodles.
- To serve, scrape and serve bowlfuls of faloodeh with lime wedges.
POMEGRANATE-GRAPEFRUIT GRANITA
From Wild Harvest. The rose water was my addition to enhance this Italian/ Middle Eastern-inspired dessert and I substituted grapefruit juice for orange juice. (It was difficult choosing between rose water and orange blossom water, let me tell you!) Organic ingredients are suggested for best quality and flavor. If preferred, you can use fresh pomegranate and juice them but that is a messy project and better left to those with much more patience than I could ever possess. I cut the recipe in half and froze the mixture in an 8-inch square Pyrex glass dish. I've also posted a recipe two years ago for a strawberry granita. Check it out: Recipe #375726.

QATAYEF ASAFIRI (STUFFED SEMOLINA PANCAKES)
Qatayef are synonymous with Ramadan. It is during this month that bakeries start making the pastry for these stuffed pancakes, and the lines spill into the street as people wait their turn to buy them. Golden underneath and speckled with bubbles on top, qatayef are cooked only on one side. They can be large or small. The large ones are normally stuffed with nuts or cheese and folded over, then fried or baked, and drenched in sugar syrup. The small ones, called qatayef asafiri (or little bird qatayef), are stuffed with a creamy filling, only half closed, then dipped in pistachio and drizzled with thick, faintly floral sugar syrup. The batter is very simple; the key is to make sure it is the right consistency, like that of heavy cream.

Steps:
- Prepare the syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, lemon juice and 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Lower heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool completely, then stir in 1/2 teaspoon orange blossom water and 1/2 teaspoon rose water.
- Make the batter: Add 1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons water to a blender or food processor. Add all the batter ingredients and process until smooth. The batter should be quite loose, similar to heavy cream in consistency. Set aside to rest for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Place the mascarpone, heavy cream, confectioners' sugar, 1/2 teaspoon orange blossom water and 1/2 teaspoon rose water in a small bowl. Use a handheld electric mixer to whip into stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Cook the qatayef: Place a medium nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat until hot. Mix the batter to ensure it is smooth, then pour separate 1-tablespoon portions of batter into the pan, fitting about 4 circles. Cook qatayef until the entire surface is covered in small bubbles and the center loses its sheen, about 30 to 45 seconds. (You might be able to cook off more at a time once you've determined the right temperature and consistency of the batter.) If the bubbles are large and sparse, then your batter is too thick; stir 1 tablespoon of water into the batter to thin. Qatayef cook only on one side; the base should be uniformly golden and the top covered in small bubbles. If the disks brown too quickly - or unevenly - underneath before the batter loses its sheen on top, lower the heat slightly.
- Transfer each cooked qatayef to a large tray lined with a dish towel and cover with another dish towel while you cook the remaining batter.
- Fill the qatayef: Fold each into a half-moon, bubble side on the inside, and pinch to seal the edges together halfway. Using a teaspoon or a piping bag, fill the opening with the cream, then dip the exposed cream filling into the ground pistachios.
- Arrange the filled qatayef on a serving platter. These can be covered in plastic wrap and refrigerated for several hours until ready to serve. To serve, drizzle the cooled syrup over the qatayef and offer guests more syrup to add to their individual plates, if they choose.
