Step 2: De-skinned and de-seeded the apples and cut into wedges. De-seeded the red dates too as the seed believe to be quite heaty to our body.

Step 4: Serve hot or cold.

I prefer to put plenty of snow fungus as it is low in calorie and can be quite fulling if consume more. (Replacement of meal :P) Snow fungus also helps to nourish the body, lungs and stomach.
