FINGERS (DAKTYLA)

• • 5 ½ cup Village flour
• • 1 cup Fine semolina
• • 1 tsp Salt
• • 2 tbsp White vinegar
• • 2/3 cup Sunflower oil
• • 1 και ¾ cup Lukewarm water

For the filling

• • 3 cup Coarsely ground almonds
• • ½ cup Sugar
• • 1 tsp Cinnamon
• • ½ tsp Cloves (ground)
• • 2-3 tbsp Rose water

For the syrup

• • 3 cup Sugar
• • 3 cup Water
• • 1 cinnamon stick
• • ½ Lemon
• • A little rose water

For frying

• • Plenty of sunflower oil

For the syrup:

1. 1. Place the sugar, water, cinnamon, and lemon in a saucepan and boil for 7-8 minutes from the time it starts bubbling. Add the rose water and let it cool. Divide it into 2 containers.

For the dough:

1. 1. In the mixer bowl, add the flour, semolina, salt, vinegar, and oil and mix well. Add the water and knead thoroughly until you have a soft dough. Cover with plastic wrap or a towel and set aside for 30 minutes.

For the filling:

1. 1. Combine all the filling ingredients in a bowl. Take a teaspoon of filling and place it on the dough sheet. Roll it twice and cut with a knife. Press the edges on the right and left with a fork. Repeat the same with the rest of the ingredients. Add plenty of sunflower oil to cover the 'fingers' halfway up and place the fingers seam-side down. Fry over high heat on both sides. Remove them to a slotted spoon/strainer and immediately dip them into the cold syrup. Place them in a strainer to drain and serve.
