- Masfouf is a desert snack traditionally served after the fast is broken on Ramadhan evenings. It is, in fact, remarkably like the various soojee
- (cream of wheat semolina) preparations encountered in Kashmir and other parts of India. The techniques of assembling are different, but the idea and ingredients are the same.
- 1. Mix the semolina and warm water in a bowl. Put it into the top (kesskess)
- of a couscousier or possibly a Chinese-style steamer and steam, covered, over warm water for 10 min.
- 2. Remove the semolina to a bowl and stir in 4 Tbsp. of the butter.
- Mix and toss to separate the grains. Return the semolina to the steamer and steam, covered, for 20 min. The semolina will expand and will be cooked through.
- 3. Soak the raisins in warm water for 5 min and drain. Remove the semolina the second time, stir in the balance of the butter, 4 Tbsp., and turn the semolina out on a serving dish. Add in the raisins, almonds, pine nuts and mix and toss together. Set aside a few raisins and nuts to decorate the top of the Masfouf. Sprinkle the Masfouf with the sugar and decorate with the raisins and nuts.
- Serve at room temperature.
- Serves 6 or possibly more.
