For a start I will tell you about where I came from this sweetness. Turkey is very large. And each region has its own special food, their secrets of its preparation and of course, their own special candy! I will introduce you to the most famous sweet from the city of Kayseri, moreover, it is the most favorite dessert of Turkish President Abdullah Gul. When the Turkey arrived, US President Barack Obama, Gul offered him this dessert, saying "good You didn't eat anything". Obama agreed, thereby glorifying the sweetness even more! My husband and I learned about it recently and decided to do. We do not sell, and hardly anywhere else, except in Kayseri or Istanbul, and, of course, in the kitchen at the presidential Palace, but there we are allowed:). I did the first time. Loved the dessert, my husband was eating for both cheeks!!! Cooks faster than I thought. The recipe was in Turkish and I read a number of times until I realized what was happening and thought at first that I won't be able to do that, but in practice it was much easier than it was described. Try it and you!!!

The dough is easy, therefore, to use the equipment makes no sense, will only be more dirty dishes:). Although, the recipe advised to mix the dough in combine as pies. In my opinion, still makes no sense. Let's get started. To begin to make a sweet syrup. It was already described in my recipes, but I repeat: mix in a saucepan the sugar, flour, 2 slices of lemon and a small cinnamon stick optional, bring to a boil, boil 5 minutes and leave to cool. This syrup (in Turkish sherbet) is the basis of many Oriental sweets.

Dough: in a deep container put butter or margarine and easy way to "dismember" it (I did it on the smallest grater).

Put the yogurt. Then the tahina. Here pay special attention. I suspect that many will begin to ask whether it is possible without it. No, no tahini in any way. She imparts a special colour, taste and aroma and is the main ingredient in this recipe. The site has a recipe for how to make tahina at home and what is tahina can be found in the article. Moreover, the tahina, you can add more, instead of 3 tbsp a recommended 1/2 Cup.

Add baking powder, egg, salt, olive oil and mix well until smooth.

Now flour. Sift and gradually add, knead a tight dough and divide into 2 parts. Flour I have left, about 400g. You look at the consistency test.

Form ( I 26 cm) greased with butter and sprinkle with flour. Put half of the dough and with your hands evenly distributed. The dough obedient, do not be afraid to break.

Now the top layer of nuts. The number of define yourself as you like. Someone offers 200g, someone 300, and in one version I actually saw a 1/2 Cup, but it's not enough for my taste. The more, the better and finely chop them not very tasty, when you get small pieces of nuts.

The nuts put the second layer of dough. I unrolled it a bit, made a round shape, and then shifted into the form and distributed by hand carefully. Can the dough to pierce with a fork in several places and put in oven on 200 degrees until ready. How much it should be baked apparently it's a big secret, because nowhere and no points, all write, until tender. My dough was baked for 30 minutes.

So here is the pie after baking.

While hot, fill it with syrup. Don't worry that the dough was "under water":) within 5 minutes all of it will be absorbed and the sweetness swell and get fat. Cut it traditionally, like baklava. Do it while hot or the dough before baking make a small incisions.

Newzine tatly ready to eat after complete cooling. I know it's hard to wait, but be patient and take a break, brew, for example, gulls. Cut into pieces and served to the table.
