Excellent! Did not use any salt (my personal preference) and it was still very tasty. Loved the combination of spices and fruit/nuts. Will be making this again. Thanks Fairy Nuff!

    The spices in this are quite tasty, although next time I will use a little less salt. I loved the crunch of the almonds and the fruitiness of the plums. Cooking time was a bit less for us (about 20 minutes early). We enjoyed this with couscous and a salad. Thanks for sharing! ~Sue

    Dee-lish!! I used lamb chops and the ground cardamom was oh so heavenly. Served with whole wheat couscous, spinach salad and crusty bread. Huzzah! Reviewed for the Great Tangerine Hunt in N*A*M*E forum. ~td~

    What a great recipe! Sweet and spicy, and very easy to make. I followed the recipe pretty closely - had to pry cardamom seeds out of their pods because I didn't have any ground - and it turned out really well. My boyfriend loved it. I served this with jewelled couscous.
