  • 1 piece egg
  • 1 tea glass yogurt
  • 1 tea glass vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1/2 packet baking powder
  • 1 cup semolina
  • 3,5 cups flour
  • 3 cups granulated sugar
  • 3 cups water
  • 5 drops lemon juice
  • Coarsely crushed walnuts
  • Whole hazelnuts
Preparation
  1. To make semolina dessert filled with walnuts, first, put 3 cups granulated sugar, 3 cups water and 4-5 drops lemon juice into a deep pot and mix.
  2. Then, place the syrup on the stove and stir until the sugar dissolves. After that, let the syrup come to a boil. After boiling, continue to boil the syrup 10 minutes over medium-low heat. Then, remove it from the stove and let it cool. The cup measurement we used in the recipe is 200 ml. tea glass measure is 110 ml.
  3. On the other hand, put 125 g butter at room temperature and 1 tea glass liquid oil into a deep bowl. You can use margarine instead of butter.
  4. Then add 1 tea glass yogurt, 1 tablespoon vinegar and 1 piece egg to the bowl, and mix all the ingredients well.
  5. Then, gradually add 1 cup semolina, half packet baking powder and 3 nearly a cup and a half flour.
  6. Knead until you obtain a soft dough that does not stick to your hands.
  7. On the other hand, take walnut-sized pieces from the dough you prepared and roll them out slightly on the counter or in your hand. Place medium-crushed walnuts in the middle part of the dough you rolled out. Carefully close the dough and roll it nicely in your hand.
  8. Then, coat the walnut-filled dough balls you have rolled in semolina.
  9. Then, make frequent scratches on the dough with a knife or the side of a spoon.
  10. Place the shaped walnut-filled doughs into a greased baking tray with slight gaps between them. Place one piece hazelnut in the middle of each and press down lightly.
  11. Place in a preheated 180 degrees oven. Bake for approximately 40 minutes until the bottom and top are nicely browned.
  12. Then remove the cooked dessert from the oven and wait 2 minutes for its initial heat to dissipate. Then, pour the cold syrup nicely over the dessert. Let your dessert absorb the syrup and wait approximately 3-4 hours until it cools down completely.
  13. You can serve the walnut semolina dessert with syrup that you have prepared.
