Step 1

Using a knife, cut the dates open on one side. Take out and discard the seeds.

Step 2

Stuff the dates with the walnuts and arrange them on a plate in one layer. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat the oil in a pan and add the butter. Add the flour and cook until it's brown and smells nutty, about 15 minutes. Stir constantly to avoid clumps and for the flour to cook evenly. Make sure not to overcook, otherwise the flour will burn and taste bitter.

Step 4

Spoon the flour mixture very carefully all over the dates and make sure they're all covered. Top with the cinnamon.

Step 5

Let ranginak sit for 10 minutes. Then top with ground pistachios, desiccated coconut and rose petals.
