Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raisins
- 1 cup Dried apricots
- 1 cup Dried mulberries
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 1 cup Raw pistachios
- 1 cup Walnuts
- 1 cup Dried figs
- 0.5 cup Shelled raw pumpkin seeds
- 2 teaspoons Rosewater (optional)
Instructions
Start by rinsing the dried fruits (raisins, dried apricots, dried mulberries, and dried figs) in cold water to remove any excess sugars or impurities.
Pat the dried fruits dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Chop dried apricots and dried figs into bite-sized pieces to ensure even distribution in the mix.
Lightly toast the raw almonds, raw pistachios, walnuts, and shelled raw pumpkin seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning and to enhance their natural flavors. Allow them to cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all the dried fruits and nuts, along with the toasted seeds.
If desired, evenly sprinkle rosewater over the mixture for a fragrant, floral touch. Toss gently to combine.
Transfer the Haf Miwah to a decorative serving bowl or an airtight container if preparing in advance.
Serve at room temperature as a snack, dessert, or celebratory dish. Enjoy your Afghan Ambrosia Haf Miwah!
