• 70 grams dates, pitted and finely chopped
• 40 grams finely mixed nuts (almonds, cashews, pistachios)
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds 
• ½ teaspoon cardamom powder 
• ½ teaspoon nutmeg powder 
• ½ teaspoon ghee 

Procedure: 

• Heat a non-stick pan over low heat and add the nuts and toast them and remove them.

• Spill the finely chopped mixed nuts, sesame seeds, cardamom powder, and nutmeg powder to the pan and mix well until everything is combined.
• Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously, until the nuts are well coated with the date mixture.
• Remove the pan from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
• Grease your palms with ghee and take a small portion of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a smooth ladoo.
• Repeat the process with the remaining mixture to make more ladoos.
