  • 3 glasses of water
  • 3 glasses of sugar
  • 200 g walnuts, chopped

Instructions

Working time approx. 1 hour; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 2 hours

Syrup (sherbet): Bring 3 glasses of water and 3 glasses of sugar to a boil, then chill. Use a Turkish tea glass as the measuring cup. Dough: Mix the oil, milk, yeast, egg, sugar, and salt well, kneading in flour as needed. Let the dough rest for about 20 minutes. Divide the dough into 6 pieces and form balls. Roll out all 6 pieces with cornstarch to the size of a plate and place them on top of each other. Roll the dough together and cut 1 cm wide slices. Flatten the slices slightly with your fingers, fill them with walnuts, and then fold one side over them. Place the prepared “shells” on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the shells with melted butter. Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C until golden brown, then let cool. Pour the warm syrup (sherbet) over them.
