METHOD
For the Syrup
1. In a small pot, combine the sugar, water, and cinnamon. Stir and let the syrup come to a boil. Boil for 2-3 minutes, then add rose water and a few drops of lemon juice. Let the syrup cool down.
For the Dough
1. Place the flour, salt, and oil in a bowl and 'rub' the flour (this means rubbing with your palms until coarse crumbs form). Add the water and vinegar and knead until you have a soft dough. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes.
For the Pissies (Fried Dough)
1. Roll out the dough into a round flatbread and fry until crispy. Remove and dip it into the cold syrup. Serve with cinnamon and crushed almonds or walnuts.
