Loukoumades with manouri and honey
Ingredients
For mixture 1
500 g flour
1 sachet yeast
30 g honey
550 ml water
Mixture 2
400 g manouri
40 ml cream
Chives (optional)
Mixture 3
8 mint leaves
20 g sesame
100 g honey
Method
We mix the ingredients from mixture 1 in a bowl with a whisk until it becomes a batter. We leave it to rise for one hour. In the food processor we blend the ingredients from mixture 2 until a firm cream is formed. We shape the loukoumades and give them the shape we want. We place them on a baking tray and put them in the fridge or the freezer to firm up. Once they have set, we dip them in the batter and fry them in sunflower oil until they take on a golden colour. We serve and sprinkle with sesame, finely chopped mint and honey.
