Описание: No-Sugar Dates & Figs Dry Fruits Burfi

Ingredients
(approximate quantities – adjust to taste/preference):
• Pitted dates (soft variety like Medjool or regular khajoor) – 1½ to 2 cups (about 300–400 g)
• Dried figs (anjeer) – 1 cup (about 150–200 g; roughly equal or slightly less than dates)
• Cashews – ½ cup
• Almonds – ½ cup
• Pumpkin seeds – 2–3 tablespoons
• Sunflower seeds – 2–3 tablespoons
• Raisins (optional, for extra chew and natural sweetness) – 2–3 tablespoons
• Ghee (clarified butter) – 2 small spoons (about 2 teaspoons / 10 ml)
• Poppy seeds (khus khus / gasagase) – 2–3 tablespoons (for outer coating)
Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Prepare the fruit baseTake the pitted dates and dried figs. If the figs are very dry or hard, soak them in warm water for 10–15 minutes, drain completely, and pat dry with a clean towel. (Skip soaking if they are already soft and moist.)Grind the dates and figs together in a mixer jar to a coarse paste. Do not make it completely smooth—keep some small chunks for better texture and bite. No water is usually needed; if the mixture is too dry, add just 1–2 teaspoons only.

2. Chop the nutsRoughly chop the cashews and almonds into small pieces (not too fine). You can also pulse them briefly in the mixer for chunky bits—avoid turning them into powder.

3. Light roast in gheeHeat 2 small spoons of ghee in a wide pan or kadai on low-medium flame.Add the chopped cashews and almonds. Roast them lightly for 1–2 minutes until they become slightly golden and release a nice aroma. Stir continuously to prevent burning.Now add the pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and raisins (if using). Mix everything well in the warm ghee for about 30 seconds—no further roasting needed.Immediately switch off the flame.

4. Combine everythingAdd the coarse dates-and-figs paste directly into the pan with the nuts and seeds (while the pan is still warm from residual heat).Mix thoroughly using a spatula or spoon. The warmth helps everything bind together naturally.Once roughly combined, transfer the entire mixture onto a large piece of parchment paper (or clean cling wrap/plastic sheet) for easier handling.
5. Knead and shapeWith clean hands, knead the mixture gently on the parchment paper until it comes together into a smooth, compact mass.Shape it into a rectangular block or a thick log (about 1–1½ inches thick and 8–10 inches long). Press firmly so it holds shape well.
6. Coat with poppy seedsSpread the poppy seeds evenly on a fresh sheet of cling wrap (or a clean plate).Place the shaped burfi block/log on top of the poppy seeds.Roll and gently press so the poppy seeds stick uniformly all around the surface. This gives a beautiful nutty crunch and elegant look when sliced.

7. Wrap and chillWrap the coated burfi tightly in the cling wrap to maintain the shape and prevent drying.Place it in the refrigerator for 1–2 hours (or until firm to the touch).

8. Slice and serveRemove from the fridge, unwrap carefully, and slice into neat rounds, squares, or diagonal pieces (about ½–¾ inch thick).Your delicious, healthy dry fruits burfi is ready to eat!

Tips & Variations:
• If the mixture feels too sticky while kneading, chill it for 10 minutes before shaping.
• For extra flavor, add a pinch of cardamom powder during mixing (optional).
• Variations: Roll in desiccated coconut or crushed pistachios instead of poppy seeds.
• This burfi is naturally sweet, high in fiber, healthy fats, and protein—perfect for diabetics (in moderation), kids, or post-workout snacks.
