Wash the dates to remove any dust.

Soak the dates in the warm milk for at least 20 minutes to soften them.

In another pan, roast cashews, almonds, and pistachios for 2 minutes until slightly crunchy.

In the same pan, add melted ghee and semolina, cooking on low flame for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

Add the soaked dates and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Pour in the remaining milk and add sugar, cooking until the mixture thickens.

Incorporate 2 crushed green cardamom for flavor.

Once the halwa is ready and leaves the sides of the pan, remove from heat and add the roasted dry fruits.
