    Mawa Stuffed Dates

    If you are looking forward to making a fuss-free edible gift, these 10 minutes stuffed mawa dates are for you. They are easy to make, decadent, and give a mithai wali feeling but the kind that is healthy-ish.

    Mawa Stuffed Dates

    What are Medjool Dates?

    Medjool Dates originate from the oasis of Morocco. They are tropical fresh fruit. Unlike other varieties of dates, these are not physically or chemically dried. Medjool dates are harvested from date palms, cleaned, and packaged right away. I buy mine from Costco, from the fresh fruits and vegetables section.

    They are super soft, making them perfect to eat right away or add to your smoothie. They are so sweet that you just 2 Medjools in your smoothie, to have it perfectly sweetened.

    Stuffed dates were a thing in my mom's kitchen during winters. She would stuff them with ghee, and nuts, and make us eat one date every day. I stumbled upon this idea 2 years back. When Inaaya was born my parents hired a sweet specialist to make customized sweets to gift to our family and friends. He brought these stuffed dates with a gujiya filling for us to taste. For me they were too sweet at that time and made in a different variety of dates, the taste didn't seem to be as appetizing. But I absolutely loved the idea.

    Ingredients to Make Mawa Stuffed Medjool Dates

    • Medjool Dates - These are fresh fruits, so they are supple, and usually bigger in size making it easier to stuff. You can use pitted Medjools. But they are very easy to pit on your own too. Make a small slit lengthwise, just not all the way to make sure the date is still intact. Carefully open the date, and remove the seed. There you have your pitted date.
    • Mawa (Khoya) - Mawa or more popularly known as khoya, are reduced milk solids. You get a 350 gm bar of khoya from Nanak brand in the Indian Store. I use this khoya to make mithais and to make rich curries when hosting guests.
    • Nuts - You can either add roughly chopped nuts or nut powders. I prefer using nut powder as I want these to have a smooth bite with a decadent mithai feeling. I am using almond powder, desiccated coconut, and pistachio powder
    • Vanilla and Cardamom - Vanilla and cardamom perfumes these dates with their sweet aroma and sweet earthy taste.
    • Garnish - Garnish the Stuffed dates with desiccated coconut, pistachio powder, and dried rose petals for a pop of color.

    Other Ideas to Stuff the Dates

    • Goat Cheese, Chili Flakes, and a drizzle of honey work wonderfully.
    • Any nut butter of your choice. My favorite is almond butter with a sprinkle of cocoa nibs.
    • Tahini Stuffed Chocolate Covered Dates
    • Jalapeno Cream Cheese Stuffed Dates with a Drizzle of Hot Honey

    Tips to Make This Recipe

    • Remove the seeds very carefully from your dates, if your dates are not pitted.
    • Stuff the dates carefully, please do not overstuff the date. The dates will tear and they will be too big to eat.
    • We will not be adding any sweetener to the Mawa filling. Since we don't like the very sweet taste we prefer to leave the mawa filling unsweetened. The dates are sweet enough to give this perfect amount of sweetness.
    • Using powdered nuts gives a smooth bite, the kind which is decadent, imagine biting into milk burfi.
    • Store them in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days in the refrigerator.

    Equipment

    • Heavy Bottom Pan
    • Spatula
    • Mixing Bowl
    • Plate

    Ingredients

    • 2 Tsp Ghee
    • 100 Gms Khoya
    • 3 Tbsp Almond Powder
    • 2 Tbsp Descicated Coconut
    • 2 Tbsp Pistachio Powder
    • 1/2 Tsp Cardamom Powder
    • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
    • 15 Medjool Dates

    For Garnish

    • 1.5 Tbsp Desiccated Coconut
    • 1 Tbsp Pistachio Powder
    • 1 Tbsp Dried Rose Petals

    Instructions

    • Crumble or shredd the 150 gms of mawa and keep it aside.
    • Add ghee to a heavy bottom pan on low heat.
    • Once the ghee melts, add in the shredded or crumbled mawa. Now cook the mawa mixing continuously, until the mawa comes together.
    • Add the crushed or powdered nut, and turn off the flame.
    • Mix everything well together until well combined.
    • Take it out in a mixing bowl, and add vanilla and cardamom. Adding them now perfumes the mawa mixture beautifully with a fresh sweet aroma.
    • Mix well with your hands. The mixture should be wet, and not crumbly or dry.
    • Stuff the pitted dates with a 1 tbsp of mawa stuffing and place them on a plate.
    • Repeat until all the dates are stuffed.
    • Garnish with sprinkle of desiccated coconut, pistachio powder and dried rose petals.
    • Store in air tight container for 3-4 days in the refrigerator.

    Notes

    • Make sure you read the blog thoroughly. 
    • I usually buy pitted Medjool dates because it makes my life easy. But pitting the dates at home is very simple too. It is just one extra step that you have to do.
    • Make a small slit lengthwise with a knife. Carefully open the Medjool date, and pluck out the seed. There you have it, your pitted date is ready. Repeat until all the dates are pitted. 
    • Store the Stuffed Dates in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You can also freeze them for a month. Thaw them overnight and enjoy. 
    • I suggest eating just one stuffed date in a day, or it will add onto the extra calories than your usual diet.

    • Sabr (patience) something that I never knew existed in me. Sabr is hard, yet it is beautiful. Beautiful when you get to tell your story. 

I never questioned once why me, when I went through losses, failed infertility treatments, bleeding disorders, and declining health. Until Inaaya was taken to the NICU to a completely different hospital. That’s when I asked why her. There is still so much that I haven’t shared. But, yet the only thing that helped me sail through everything was patience, my will to take one day at a time. Through all the downfalls, I have risen stronger, wiser, more confident, but most of all grateful for the ones who truly never left my side. 

I am glad I shared my infertility and IVF journey. It has helped so many of you and me. It is a true honor for me to read your stories, to see the photos to your miracle babies, and so many of you messaged me encouraging words with your own experiences with NICU. 

So if you are going through any hard times, things get better. Have faith in time. It is easy to say than do, but I have been there on the path of grief a couple of times now. Time will bring you the things you deserve. If you are grieving, time will help you teach to live with it, channel it. It might take some help from an outsider. I am proud of myself to seek therapy when I needed it. It has helped me channel my big emotions and very big feelings in the right way. I still have my days, when I spend all my time in bed, watching tv endlessly, eating in bed, tears rolling out for reasons I can’t explain. But I am have gotten  better since past couple years. My two girls, Luna and Inaaya never fail to show me love, kindness and grace.

    • Matar Paneer and Garam Garam Tandoori Roti! A meal that will always be my favorite and nostalgic. My mom used to make matar paneer, whenever I would invite my friends over, or she wants to treat us for a restaurant style dinner at home. This matar paneer is so easy to make and so delicious! 

📌Recipe📌

🌱 For the Curry Base

• 1 Tbsp Oil
• 1/2 Tsp Cumin Seeds
• 2 Green Cardamoms
• 1 Bay Leaf
• 1 Small Cinnamon Stick
• 1 Dried Red Chili
• 1 Medium Onion Sliced
• 1 Big RomaTomato Sliced
• 4-5 Garlic cloves chopped
• 1/2 Inch ginger chopped
• 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
• 1/2 Tsp Dhanyajeera Powder
• 1/4 Tsp Turmeric
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 8-10 Cashews

For The Curry

• 2 Tbsp Butter
• 1 Tsp Kashmiri Ted Chili Powder 
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 250 Gms Paneer Cubed
• 1/2 Cup Fresh/ Frozen Green Peas
• 1 Tsp Garam Masala
• 1 Tsp Crushed Kasuri Methi
• Adjust Salt if needed

📌 step by step📌

1. To a frying pan add oil, cumin seeds, dried red chili, green cardamom, bay leaf and cinnamon stick. Let the cumin seeds splutter and add sliced onions. 2. Saute the onions until they soften and add ginger garlic. Saute everything until golden brown. 
3. Add chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, dhanyajeera turmeric, salt and cashews. Cook until tomatoes soften. 
4. Let it cool down. Take the bay leaf out. And now add the prepared masala to a blender. Blend into a curry base. 
5. Add butter to the pan. To this add kashmiri red chili powder, and add the preppared curry base. Add splash of water to adjust the consistency. 
6. Add a tsp of sugar to balance the flavors. And adjust the salt. 
7. Let it cook for a minute and add cubed paneer and peas. I like to soak store bought paneer in hot water for 10-15 mins before adding it to the curries. This makes the paneer very soft. 
8. Add garam masala and kasuri methi. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and cream.
9. Serve hot!

    • Life isn’t easy on any of us. We all battle our own struggles and this was mine. Inaaya is my fierce and warrior child. She was worth the wait. She came into my life when I needed her the most. When I was broken to the point where healing didn’t seem to be in the horizon. She knows to constantly remind of the love I craved for years. Inaaya means gift of god. She is the light of our lives, she is my light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Someone has rightly said, a quote I go back to again and again. 

“You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option“ 

If you are in a similar situation as I was, know that there is light at the end of tunnel, and everything happens for a reason.

    Sabr (patience) something that I never knew existed in me. Sabr is hard, yet it is beautiful. Beautiful when you get to tell your story.

    I never questioned once why me, when I went through losses, failed infertility treatments, bleeding disorders, and declining health. Until Inaaya was taken to the NICU to a completely different hospital. That’s when I asked why her. There is still so much that I haven’t shared. But, yet the only thing that helped me sail through everything was patience, my will to take one day at a time. Through all the downfalls, I have risen stronger, wiser, more confident, but most of all grateful for the ones who truly never left my side.

    I am glad I shared my infertility and IVF journey. It has helped so many of you and me. It is a true honor for me to read your stories, to see the photos to your miracle babies, and so many of you messaged me encouraging words with your own experiences with NICU.

    So if you are going through any hard times, things get better. Have faith in time. It is easy to say than do, but I have been there on the path of grief a couple of times now. Time will bring you the things you deserve. If you are grieving, time will help you teach to live with it, channel it. It might take some help from an outsider. I am proud of myself to seek therapy when I needed it. It has helped me channel my big emotions and very big feelings in the right way. I still have my days, when I spend all my time in bed, watching tv endlessly, eating in bed, tears rolling out for reasons I can’t explain. But I am have gotten better since past couple years. My two girls, Luna and Inaaya never fail to show me love, kindness and grace.

    Matar Paneer and Garam Garam Tandoori Roti! A meal that will always be my favorite and nostalgic. My mom used to make matar paneer, whenever I would invite my friends over, or she wants to treat us for a restaurant style dinner at home. This matar paneer is so easy to make and so delicious!

    📌Recipe📌

    🌱 For the Curry Base

    • 1 Tbsp Oil
    • 1/2 Tsp Cumin Seeds
    • 2 Green Cardamoms
    • 1 Bay Leaf
    • 1 Small Cinnamon Stick
    • 1 Dried Red Chili
    • 1 Medium Onion Sliced
    • 1 Big RomaTomato Sliced
    • 4-5 Garlic cloves chopped
    • 1/2 Inch ginger chopped
    • 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
    • 1/2 Tsp Dhanyajeera Powder
    • 1/4 Tsp Turmeric
    • 1 Tsp Salt
    • 8-10 Cashews

    For The Curry

    • 2 Tbsp Butter
    • 1 Tsp Kashmiri Ted Chili Powder
    • 1 Tsp Salt
    • 250 Gms Paneer Cubed
    • 1/2 Cup Fresh/ Frozen Green Peas
    • 1 Tsp Garam Masala
    • 1 Tsp Crushed Kasuri Methi
    • Adjust Salt if needed

    📌 step by step📌

    1. To a frying pan add oil, cumin seeds, dried red chili, green cardamom, bay leaf and cinnamon stick. Let the cumin seeds splutter and add sliced onions. 2. Saute the onions until they soften and add ginger garlic. Saute everything until golden brown.
    3. Add chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, dhanyajeera turmeric, salt and cashews. Cook until tomatoes soften.
    4. Let it cool down. Take the bay leaf out. And now add the prepared masala to a blender. Blend into a curry base.
    5. Add butter to the pan. To this add kashmiri red chili powder, and add the preppared curry base. Add splash of water to adjust the consistency.
    6. Add a tsp of sugar to balance the flavors. And adjust the salt.
    7. Let it cook for a minute and add cubed paneer and peas. I like to soak store bought paneer in hot water for 10-15 mins before adding it to the curries. This makes the paneer very soft.
    8. Add garam masala and kasuri methi. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and cream.
    9. Serve hot!

    Life isn’t easy on any of us. We all battle our own struggles and this was mine. Inaaya is my fierce and warrior child. She was worth the wait. She came into my life when I needed her the most. When I was broken to the point where healing didn’t seem to be in the horizon. She knows to constantly remind of the love I craved for years. Inaaya means gift of god. She is the light of our lives, she is my light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Someone has rightly said, a quote I go back to again and again.

    “You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option“

    If you are in a similar situation as I was, know that there is light at the end of tunnel, and everything happens for a reason.
