Cooking Time - 5-10 mins
Method
1. Dry roast nuts in a preheated steel pan until crunchy. Remove from pan and keep them aside.
2. In a same heated pan put chopped fig with water to soften them.
3. Now add dates, Raisins and sauté them for 5 mins or till it gets soft and mushy. Since it is a steel pan you can add ghee as it may tend to stick the pan.
4. Now add the Powdered Nutmeg, Cardamom, cinnamon along with Roasted nuts to the mixture and cook it for 2-3 minutes.
