HOW TO PREPARE

Pistachio Sweet Sambousek with

1
Place flour in a deep bowl, add sugar, salt, mahlab and mix well. Add butter then rub the butter with your fingertips until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
2
Gradually add little quantities of water and mix thoroughly until a dough forms. Cover with kitchen cloth and set aside for 1 hour.
3
To prepare the stuffing, place NESTLÉ Sweetened Condensed Milk and corn flour in a saucepan. Bring to boil under constant stirring and cook for 3-4 minutes or the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
4
Add the pistachio, rosewater and vanilla powder to the mixture. Stir well and set aside to cool.
5
Roll the dough into round 3 millimeters thick pastry. Using a medium size cup, cut round pieces of the dough. Place 1 full teaspoon of the pistachio mixture in the center of each piece and seal the edges by twisting them.
6
Deep-fry the sweet sambousek in 180°C preheated oil for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown. Carefully remove the pistachio sambousek from the oil and immediately dip them in the syrup. Serve cold.
