Steps:
- Combine the smashed cardamom pods, the water, and pulverized coffee beans in an Arabic coffeepot or a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce to low, and simmer, covered, for 15 to 20 minutes, until the grounds have settled and the coffee is very strong. Pour the coffee carefully into small cups, allowing the grounds to stay in the bottom of the coffeepot. You can strain the coffee through a fine sieve, if desired. Serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality coffee beans for the best flavor.
- Grind your coffee beans just before brewing for optimal flavor and aroma.

- Remove the coffee from the heat and let it sit for a few minutes before serving, to allow the grounds to settle.
