Date and Nut Roll

Here is a sweet that doesnt use much of ghee or sugar!

So people who are health conscious would love this. Plus its so simple to make unlike many other sweets!

INGREDIENTS:

500 gms Dates pitted and chopped
200 gms unsalted almonds roughly chopped
200gms unsalted pistachios
1tsp poppy seeds1tbslp ghee/ butter

METHOD:

Heat a little ghee in a heavy bottomed pan and seperately roast the chopped almonds, pistachios and poppy seeds and keep them aside

Heat the remaining ghee and add the pitted and chopped dates and keep stirring under low flame until it melts. It will take about 10-15 mins

Add the roasted nuts and mix well

Cool the mixture slightly and then make chapathi-like layers out of it

Roll them into logs and roll them over the poppy seeds (to get an outer coverng of poppy seeds)

Refridgerate for about 45-60 mins

Cut them into slices and serve.

Hope you like it!
