Greek Halva - a sweet speciality
Please treat this more like a piece of chocolate after dinner rather than as a cake.

Ingredients:

Greek Halva - a sweet speciality

Preparation:

Heat the oil in a large saucepan.

Add the semolina and cook until it becomes slightly brown.

Be careful not to burn it, we just want a slightly toasted taste.

Add the sugar and caramelize for a couple of minutes.

Finally add more water. Be careful, there will be a lot of steam and it will bubble up a lot. It's normal.

Stir the wooden spoon until the mixture thickens and slightly detaches from the pan.

Put the mixture in a mold and sprinkle with almonds for example.

Once cooled return it onto a dish and cut into small pieces.

The cake can be kept for several days outside the fridge. No need for large chunks, all you need are small slices.

Enjoy your meal!
