4. Start pouring small circles on a steel pan you have put on the fire.
5. You can make the circles as big or as small as you like.
6. After 1 minute of pouring the circles turn the Katayef to the other side for 2 seconds and then we take them off the steel pan.

10. You can make 6 of the walnut mixture and another 6 of the Kushta filling, it depends on the quantity you want from each.
11. Close the Katayef (with the filling inside) to make a half moon shape.
12. close it tightly by pressing on the edges of the dough.

Herbs and minerals are the integral parts of traditional systems of medicine in many countries. Kushta is a form of herbo-mineral preparations used in traditional systems of medicine (Unani and Ayurvedic) of Indo-Pak subcontinent. These preparations have long been used and claimed to be the most effective and potent dosage form.

Doubt if that helps you either, does it. ?

Looks like i'm going to have to wait a long time for that meal Ronin.
