Ingredients

• 100 g Date ( pitted and halved )
• 100 g Apricot ( dried, quartered )
• 50 g Raisin ( whole )
• 50 g Almond with skin ( whole )
• 50 g Walnut kernel ( roughly crushed )
• 30 g Roasted salted pistachio optional ( shelled )
• 4 tbsp Honey
• 1 tsp Cinnamon ground
• 0.5 piece Citrus limon (L.) Burm. f. ( juiced )
• 100 g Dried figs ( cut into quarters )

Instructions

1. Roasting

   Toss the almonds and walnuts into a hot pan without fat. Stir until the nuts color and the roasted smell spreads.

2. Cutting the fruits

   Cut the dates, apricots and dried figs into regular quarters. The pieces should be large enough to keep some texture.

3. Honey infusion

   Heat the honey with the cinnamon and lemon juice. As soon as it becomes fluid and starts to simmer, remove from heat.

4. Coating

   Mix all the fruits in a bowl. Pour the hot honey over them and stir so that each piece shines. Let cool so the syrup coats well.

Chef's tips

• Don't let the nuts burn, the bitterness would ruin everything.
• Serve this mix over thick Greek yogurt for a temperature contrast.

Storage
