Date Filled Spicy Cookies: Makrouta

[@TFT]

Here is the written step-by-step recipe on my website my friends! www.turkishfoodtravel.com/2023/10/28/makrouta-date-filled-spicy-cookies/

[@mezianah]

it is a very well known Sham desert (Palestine, Syria Lebanon and Jordan).. some prepare it without semolina which I think is tastier.. it is also usually prepared with baking powder rather than yeast to make it more like a cookie.. I was first introduced to it by a Palestinian friend as part of their heritage and culture which is why I thought you choosed this dish to support Palestine and send them a prayer .. I must say I am a bit disappointed you didn't...

[@lovenature1919]

Its actually Mesopotamian in origin. Palm trees and dates

Thanks for your words of peace, and friendship. In Australia First Nation People asked for a voice to Parliament in a referendum, yes or no vote, the no vote won. My husband and I felt so ashamed of being white invaders of other peoples land, the history is hidden from the people. I love history because it seeks truth, and cooking because it brings culture together. May we have a world of peace. Book: Henry Renolds, Why weren't we told

Hiii..I’m from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 I really love ur videos and Turkish people …❤

[@go2yourself]

Looks good but a bit challenging to make, but I will try to do it ❤

[@TFT]

Other then shaping it’s not so challenging. You can also share however you want, maybe shaping the filling as a log on top of a thicker dough and roll ones

[@beatricegalea9112]

Wonderful recipe.! We have something similar out here in Malta called “Maqrut” but the pastry is fried in oil! Love to try this one but two spice ingredients are not available “gum mastic” and the “mahalep powder”. Can I still make the cookies without these two ingredients spices? Thank you for sharing and God Bless you and all .😋😋😋🌹❤️🇲🇹

[@TFT]

Thats interesting that you have almost same name dessert. Yes you can make without them but if you can find try with them as well. Hope you enjoy

[@lazizizineb4952]

Same for us in Algeria we call it makrout and we fry it then put honey on it

Merhaba Aysenur! These cookies look so delicious and festive! I’d love to add these to my Christmas dessert platter. Just not sure I can find all the spices. Fennel, cardamom, and cinnamon are the only ones familiar. There is a Middle Eastern grocery a few miles from here that may carry them. Otherwise maybe Amazon has them. ❤

[@TFT]

Merhaba Maggie, I am glad you are planning to make them. Yes you must be able to find the others in a middle eastern store. They really make a diffrence ❤️

[@samahyassine7726]

Thanks, here is the written recipe www.turkishfoodtravel.com/2023/10/28/makrouta-date-filled-spicy-cookies/

[@dadarmwn]

for a very soft cookie dough, I prefer to roll it and put it in the fridge until the dough a little bit firmer. then cut the dough with thread.

[@TFT]

Yes thanks for the tip

So strange you choose a time for making middle east cookie and underlined your friendship and unity with levantine region via cuisine...same religion and cuisine does not make people automatically right... . Turkish cuisine shares a lot with Greece and Georgia as ancient lands of current Turkye, but you have never mentioned "friendship".

[@gayatrijohnston]

Thanks for this recipe I will definitely try it. Lucky it has no eggs

[@melissalambert7615]

Lovely cookies. I like dates very much and all the spices. I have most of them. I am lucky enough to grow seed fennel.
