Mammy and Siwa

Description

These sweets are most often made only on holidays. Mammy is a carrot stuffed with walnuts, and Siwa (siwa) - stuffed with dates, and the dough is very delicate and crumbly.

Ingredients

Semolina

1 kg
Melted butter

2 cup
Water

1 cup
Leavening agent

2 tsp
Vanilla sugar

1 pack
Nuts

500 g
Cards

700 g
The sugar syrup
Powdered sugar

200 g

Cooking

Mix the semolina with the butter, baking powder, vanilla sugar. Mix well. The dough is elastic, gradually add water and knead. Check the elasticity: of the test, you can do this a Cup. Leave the dough to rest for an hour and a half.

Nuts, I have pistachios, grind them and mix with syrup to obtain a homogeneous mass (small nuts - pistachios or pine can not grind, but just to pour the syrup and mix well). Dates are exempt from stones and stems and mince (!!!!!) 2-3. Do not use blenders, and similar things can burn!!!! (my personal experience, thank God, all remained intact). I have purchased pasta.

Of dough and filling makes the balls (I prefer a small one or two bite) somewhere with a diameter of 2 cm (the dough) and the filling - 1.5-1.7 cm (i.e. almost the same).

Of dough with your finger pressed down and slightly rolling movements do Zamecku.

Put the stuffing.

And now on one open palm our gingerbread covered up second hand on top(because it pumps), begin to scroll through and compress the dough around the filling. The movements should not be harsh and too slow. Practice and you will succeed (God, it's easier to show a thousand times than to describe the action!).

Siwa decorate with a fork or use cookie cutters with piston.

Bake on baking sheets lined with paper (no greasing is not necessary) in a preheated at high oven for 10-15 minutes, they should become slightly browned.

Mammy sprinkle with powdered sugar, can wrap in tissue paper so that the powder is not poured. It seems that everything, described as best I could. Honestly, it's easier to show than to describe. Bon appetit. What is not clear - ask.
