Cooking Instructions

45 minutes

1

We start with the Sugar syrup first
2

Bring water and sugar to a boil. Stir gently.
3

Once it reaches a boil, reduce heat and let it simmer. Do not stir. 3-5 mins
4

Remove from heat. Add lemon juice and rose water. And let the syrup cool.
5

Start on the basbusa mix. Mix all the dry ingredients
6

Add the vanilla and butter and mix.
7

Then add the cream. And mix. It will be a wet sand consistency.
8

Move to a baking dish and pat flat with a wet hand.
9

Score lines and add pealed almonds
10

Bake for 28 minutes in a preheated oven (middle rack) at 180C / 350F
11

Adjust time as needed. You are aiming for crisp edges.
12

Switch to top grill / broiler (low) and bring to golden brown. Just takes a few mins. So watch carefully.
13

Cut into the score lines. This will help with absorbing the sugar syrup.
14

Pour sugar syrup over quickly; within minutes of removing from the oven.
15

Let it cool. And enjoy!!
