Recipe: Cinnamon pastries with tahini
Dessert recipes with spices and herbs
December 26, 2009
Yesterday I went to the garden to harvest some aromatic herbs and I found some ripen Rocotillo.
These chilies are really awesome and I put them on the Christmas tree.
I cooked many traditional recipes for Christmas, from every part of the world.
Here in Sicily a must is schiacciata, a closed pizza stuffed with broccoli, sausage, olives and cheese.
I had some pizza dough leftovers, and I use them for these pastries.
Cinnamon pastries with tahini
Roll out the dough very thin, into circle shapes 10 cm in diameter.
Spread a teaspoon of tahini on each disc, and sprinkle with:
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp cane-sugar
Roll into a tube, then roll again the tube into a spiral, like the indian parotas.
Press with your hands the pastries, then sprinkle with sugar-cane.
Bake in preheated 180° C (356 F) oven 15-20 minutes.
