Description

Ingredients

• 4-5 Slices of white bread
• Thick cream/ Nestle cream/ Arabic clotted cream
• Sugar syrup
• Ground pistachios for garnish
• Oil for deep frying
• 1 1/2 cups of sugar
• 3/4 cups of water
• 1/2 tsp orange blossom water
• 1/2 tsp rose water
• 1/2 tsp lemon juice
• Sealing paste made with 1/4 cup of flour mixed in 1/4 cup water.

Directions

• Trim the sides of the bread. Flatten it out using a rolling pin. Apply the sealing paste on both long sides of the bread and on one short side. Add in the cream like a log near the remaining short side of the bread slice. Then gently roll it and seal well. Remember that it should be sealed well or it will open up while frying. This is optional, but you can freeze this for sometime to solidify, by doing this the bread will soak up lesser oil. Heat the oil and fry these rolls, seal side down first on a medium flame. Remove these from oil onto a kitchen tissue and then dip the rolls in prepared sugar syrup.
• Mix sugar and water in pan and place on stove. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and allow it to come to a gently boil.Let it simmer for 10 minutes till the syrup thickens slightly. Finally add in the lemon juice and the flavour waters.
