OM 'ALI
1 pkt roqaq or 1/2 kg gullash 1 cup mixed nuts 1 tablespoon grated coconut 1 tablespoon unsalted butter or fresh cream 2 cups rich, well-sweetened milk
Dry the roqaq or gullash, 1-2 sheets at a time, for 1-2 minutes in a hot oven, enough to make them dry and crisp. Crush with fingers and place in a lightly greased oven dish. Mix the nuts and coconut and scatter on top. Warm the sweetened milk and pour over the dessert. Dab with butter or cream and place in moderately hot oven till top is browned.
Notes:
Roqaq is a type of cracker-bread sold in round packets of 300 g. at grocers.
Gullash are fresh soft paper-thin pastry sheets, sold in bakeries.
Depending on availability, the nuts used as filling for sweet dishes are almonds, hazelnuts, pecans, and peanuts, roasted and peeled. A mixture of two or more are used. These are crushed very fine and mixed with sugar at the ratio of 2/3 nuts to 1/3 sugar. Rose water or vanilla essence is sometimes added.
