kalon prama or Samali is a semolina cake very popular in Cyprus, kalon prama means 'good thing' , so you can imagine how delicious this dessert is. It is made with wheat semolina, almonds and syrup, very easy to do.
Ingredients:
- 250 grams yoghurt.
- 150 grams sugar.
- 1/2 ground orange rind.
- 2 eggs.
- 100 grams butter.
- 350 grams semolina.
- 1 teaspoon baking soda.
- 2 teaspoon baking soda.
- 1/2 teaspoon mastika or anise.
- Almonds.
Ingredients for the Syrup:
- 400 grams sugar.
- 400 ml water.
- 1 cinnamon stick.
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice.
Method:
1- Mix semolina with sugar, baking soda, baking powder, ground orange rind, butter, yoghurt , eggs and anise or mastika.
Mastika is a tree resin or the liqueur made from that resin. It tastes like anise so you can use anise in case you don't find Mastika.
I made the cake with the liqueur of Mastika:
I found it in Madrid at this store where you can find other Bulgarian products: http://www.tiendabulgaraenmadrid.es
Mini mercado 4M Ezequiel Solana 78, Madrid
Mix well:
2- Mix until you have an homogeneous dough.
3- Put in an ovenproof recipient, make squares along the dough with the help of a knife, put an almond on top of every square.
5- While the cake is cooking , lets make the syrup. Put in a casserole sugar, water, cinnamon stick and lemon. Put on a low heat and cook until all the sugar has been disolved. Then let it cool.
7- You can consume it hot or cold, as you want. It is delicious!
