Cost: Cheap

Preparation time :     30 minutes
Cooking time :     7 minutes

Ingredients

for the dough:

1¾ cups plain flour or 250 g

1 tablespoon sugar

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon ground mahlab

½ cup butter or 100 g, softened

½ cup water or 125 ml

for the stuffing:

1 tin NESTLÉ® Sweetened Condensed Milk or 397 g

1 tablespoon corn flour

1½ cups pistachio nuts or 150 g, ground

1 tablespoon rose water

1 teaspoon vanilla powder

2 cups oil for deep frying

1 cup sugar syrup

Preparation

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.

Gradually add little quantities of water and mix thoroughly until a dough forms. Cover with kitchen cloth and set aside for 1 hour.

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.

Add the pistachio, rosewater and vanilla powder to the mixture. Stir well and set aside to cool.

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.

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.
