Recipe 85- Greek RAVANI (semolina dessert)

Good morning. This dessert is fabulous! You should try it immediately!

Ingredients

4 eggs

2 cups semolina

1 cup flour

1 cup plain yogurt

1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon vanilla powder

1 cup vegetable oil

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoon lemon juice

For the syrup

 4 cups sugar

3 1/2 cups water

1 teaspoon lemon juice

Preheat the oven to 355F (180C).

In a large bowl mix together the flour, semolina, vanilla and baking powder.

In another bowl beat the sugar with the oil and the yogurt. Beat in the eggs one by one. Add the powder mix and stir well.

Grease a large (36cm) pan and put some flour on the bottom. Pour in the mixture and bake for 45 min.

Let cool down.

Prepare the syrup by heating the ingredients in a pot over medium temperature. Bring to boil for 5 min.

Pour the syrup while it is hot over the ravani gently and evenly. It will double in size (hopefully!).

Enjoy!
