Description
Posted for the zaar world tour 2006-syria.
From "the best of international cooking" cookbook. Even though the title says that this is a salad, it is actually a dessert. If you prefer a less sweet dessert, add the juice of one lemon. I haven't made this recipe, but i love dried fruit and nuts and this sounds delicious. Note: prep time does not include refrigeration time, so be sure to allow extra time for required refrigeration.
