Revani - Turkish delight

It's weekend again and an easy recipe for my Lithuanian girls in Turkey... for those with a sweet tooth! :D Revani is a Turkish semolina cake soaked in sugar syrup and sprinkled with some nuts. This time I used coconut but it's common to use pistacho nuts as well.

What we need:

3 eggs
1 glass of sugar ( 250ml)
80gr of butter
1/2 glass of flour
1 glass semolina
1/2 lemon zest
1 tsp baking powder
nuts

for syrup

2 glasses sugar
2 glasses water

What we have to do:

1. Cook your syrup by pouring sugar and water into a pot. Bring it to boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Then leave it to cool.
2. Pre-heat your oven 175C.
3. Mix the eggs, soft butter and sugar until fluffy.
4. Mix flour, semolina, baking powder and lemon zest.
5. Pour your dry ingredients into egg mixture and whisk until combined.
6. Butter your cake tin and put into the oven for 30 minutes until baked and top is golden brown.
7. When your cake is baked, pour your syrup over and leave it to cool. Then sprinkle with your nuts and serve.
