Ingredients

  • For the othmaliye:

  • 1 kg othmaliye dough
  • 500 ml oil for deep frying
  • ½ cup sugar syrup
  • For the kishta:

  • 750 ml water
  • 1 tin NESTLÉ® Sweetened Condensed Milk or 397 g
  • 2/3 cup corn flour or 90 g

Preparation

For the othmaliye:

Take a small bunch of the othmaliye dough; roll over a small aluminum or stainless steel cup 3 times and press it well to make a round shape. Repeat the same process with different cups until you finish the dough.

Arrange all the cups in one tray and put them in a 150 °C preheated oven for 6 to 8 minutes until dry (the color should remain white).

Remove from the oven and cool them down. Remove the cups and deep-fry the round dry othmaliye in the oil until golden in color.

Cool them down and then sprinkle the syrup with a spoon over the othmaliye and keep aside.

For the kishta:

Combine the water, NESTLÉ® Sweetened Condensed Milk and corn flour; bring to boil and simmer for 1 minute. Put the mixture in the fridge.

To keep fresh and crispy, fill the othmaliye with the kishta upon request and serve.

Serving tips : Garnish with crushed pistachio and orange blossom in syrup.
