Eid Ma’amoul
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
In a big bowl mix the semolina with the sugar and the milk so they are well combined
* Step 2
Add the ghee while rubbing the mixture with fingers
* Step 3
Leave the semolina for 4hrs or overnight to rest
* Step 4
In the second day add the blossom, rose water and the dissolved yeast with water and rube them very well so we have a cohesive dough, then leave it to rest for an hour
* Step 5
Form small balls,with the size of a walnut, out of the dough and cover them so they don’t get dry

Form balls out of the date smaller than the dough balls

* Step 10
Put the stuffing inside then pinch the dough so it is completely sealed

Put the dough ball in a wooden mould special for ma’amoul (dip the mould in the semolina so the dough doesn’t stick inside)

* Step 13
Leave them so they cool down
