Qahwah - Arabic Coffee

4 cups (finjan)of water
(use espresso coffee cup when measuring water)

4 heaped teaspoons Arabic coffee

a pinch of ground cardamom


Note: Traditionally served without sugar but since sugar is boiled at the same time as the coffee, guests are usually asked their preference - whether they would like sweet or unsweetened.

*The long handled coffee pot (Dallah or Ibrik) is available from most Middle Eastern and Indian stores. (source)
