Ħelwa tat-tork

Maltese nut fudge hails from the time when the island was under Arabian rule, and over time it became an important part of local cuisine. Ħelwa tat-tork is made by dissolving tahini and sugar in water to form a dense paste which is then studded with whole roasted almonds. In Malta, this delicious nut fudge is traditionally served after lunch or dinner, and it is typically enjoyed with coffee.
