Soak basmati rice in water for two hours. Drain water and spread on kitchen towel.

Thickened jaggery syrup should not mix with water. It has to be slightly rolling consistency.
Add jaggery syrup to the basmati flour. Mix well. The dough should be soft.
Apply oil on the dough and rest it for overnight or seven hours.
Chop cashew nut almond and prunes into bits. Keep it aside.
Spread oil on plastic sheet. Take a small ball of the dough and flatten it.

Roll into smooth ball carefully without any fruits or nuts coming out.
Flatten the ball as we do for athirasam.
Heat oil in a wok on a medium flame. Fry fruits and nuts stuffed athirasam in oil.
Gently flip and wait till it's golden brown. Transfer stuffed dried fruits and nuts athirasam on to tissue paper.
Yummy healthy dry fruit and Nut Athirasam is ready to consume.
