This is Kemalpaşa made in a tray: the same mixture, a different shape. The tray version is more practical but takes longer to absorb the syrup. Cutting it after it comes out of the oven lets the syrup get inside.
Ingredients
For the dough
For the syrup
For the top
Method
-
Make the syrup
Boil the sugar and water for 12 minutes, add the lemon juice and cool.
-
Mix the batter
Mix the cheese, eggs and sugar. Add the semolina, flour, baking powder and vanilla and bring together.
-
Into the tray
Pour into a buttered dish and level it.
-
Bake
Bake at 180 degrees for 35 minutes, until the top is golden.
-
Cut
Cut into squares the moment it leaves the oven.
-
Add the syrup
Pour the cold syrup over and give it 45 minutes to be absorbed. Scatter with coconut.
Tips
- Taste the cheese to check whether it is salty; if it is, soak it in water for 1 hour.
- THE SYRUP RULE: the dessert hot, the syrup cold.
- Cut before the syrup goes on, as the cuts let it get inside.
