How to make it

  • SYRUP:
  • Bring sugar, water, orange juice and lemon juice to a boil in a deep saucepan.
  • Cook over low to medium heat until the syrup is thickened and clear, about 30 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the spices.
  • Refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours for best results.
  • LOUKOUMADES:
  • Combine water, oil, sugar and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Add matzo meal all at one time.
  • Beating all the while, continue to cook the dough until it pulls away from the sides of the pot and forms a large ball.
  • Remove from heat and continue mixing for 5 to 10 minutes to help the dough to cool to lukewarm.
  • Add eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition.
  • Drop by heaping teaspoons into hot oil.
  • They will submerge into the oil and then rise.
  • Make sure that they fry on both sides and have a uniform golden color.
  • Dip in syrup and stack on a plate in the shape of a mountain.
  • Sprinkle with coarsely ground or chopped ( pistachio ) nuts.
