Another is the fried, which is the kind that is baked in (round) cakes. Knead finely pounded almonds and sugar with rose-water and put it in them.

Take a third of a pound of finely ground peeled almonds, mix them with the sugar and knead it with rose-water. Then take bread made thin like sanbusaj bread - the thinner, the better - and spread out a loaf of that bread and put the kneaded almonds and sugar on it. Then roll it up like a belt and cut it into small pieces, and arrange them (sc. in a bowl). Refine the necessary amount of fresh sesame oil and put it on them. Then cover them in syrup to which rose-water has been added.
