Add 2 tbsp olive oil, shallot and crushed garlic into a saucepan on medium heat. Fry for ~6 minutes. Add chili fakes, vinegar, paprika, cumin, dates, black garlic, water and salt and stir to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer, decrease heat to medium low and cook for 8 minutes, or until the dates have softened completely. Let cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a spice grinder or food processor with the remaining olive oil and blitz to a smooth sauce.
