Navaratna kurma

This is a  sweet dish loved by all.As the name suggests "nine gems"it must be a mixture of nine veggies and fruits.It is a very rich dish ...people who are on diet will not prefer dish.Add only firm fruits.My daughter loves raisins so I added it to the dish..This goes wonderfully with naan,roti or chapathi
