RAVANIJA (DOUGH COVERED WITH SHERBET)

Ravanija is an old traditional dessert which is widely prepared in all countries that were under Ottoman empire. It's one of the most delicious desserts, it's easy to prepare and a must try sweet. You can't usually stop at one piece so It's the best to take the whole ravanija and eat directly from the baking tray lol.


Ingredients:

For the dough:
  • 5 eggs
  • 10 tablespoons sugar
  • 10 tablespoons semolina
  • 5 tablespoons flour
  • 1 baking powder (10 g or 2 teaspoons)
For the sherbet (syrup):
  • 800 g sugar
  • 400 ml water
  • 1 vanilla sugar (10 g)
 Preparation:
  1.  Mix eggs and sugar with a mixer. Then add semolina, flour and baking powder. Mix until the mixture is even. 
  2. Put in a  baking tray 25x30 or maybe a little larger and put in the oven to bake for around 20-25 minutes at 180 C degrees. Check with a toothpick if the biscuit is baked.
  3. Once you bake the dough, leave to cool.
  4. For syrup: Put sugar, water and vanilla sugar to a boil in a pot at low temperature for around 15 minutes. When the syrup is ready, pour on previously cooled dough. Put some coconut flakes on top to decorate.

Enjoy!
