Family Spice Recipe for Ajeel (Perisan Trail Mix)

Ajeel (Perisan Trail Mix)

Ajeel is a Persian mixture of dried fruits with roasted nuts and seeds, very similar to trail mix. There is no real recipe for it, as it is made to the taste of the person preparing it. Many times you add whatever you might have on hand or what is available at your stores. Here is one example of what ajeel is like in a typical Perisan home. Ajeel is also served during the celebrations of Chahârshanbe Sûrî.
