1. Coarsely chop the nuts in a processor. Mix the nuts, fruits,

Halek is a word also used in Kurdistan and India to denote the
ceremonial mixture presented on the table at the Passover Seder. The
Ashkenazi haroseth is used for the same purpose, but the combination
of ingredients is more complex. There are several types of Persian
halek -- the combination of nuts, fruits, wine, and spices --
depending upon the family custom.
