Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Pour boiling water over the dates and apricots and let soak for 15 minutes. Then grind or blend into a smooth paste.
Add half the sesame seeds, the cinnamon, cashews, sunflower seeds, orange zest, and cardamom to the paste. Mix thoroughly and shape into a log.
Coat the log with the remaining sesame seeds. Wrap the rolls in plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours until firm.
Serve the roll.

Tip: Drain the soaked fruit well and reserve the water; add a tablespoon to the blender only if the blades spin without catching the fruit. If the paste is too thin, it will not hold its shape.
