How to Make Zulbia

Submitted by admin on Saturday, 27 December 20082 Comments

Zulbia or zoolbia,zulbia is made up of fried dough and then covered with syrup (honey or melted sugar)

You will need:

flour, 500 grams
yogurt (not-skim), 150 grams
sugar, 200 grams
cooking oil
rose-water, 2-3 spoons

Directions:

Mix flour, 1-2 spoons of sugar, and water, then add yogurt and mix well until the
mixture is even and smooth. Heat oil in a pan until hot. Pour the mix through a funnel
into the pan creating round shapes about 5 cm in diameter. Lower the heat and
fry fully on one side, then on the other.

Mix sugar, rose-water, and a glass of water. Heat until water comes to a boil, and
the syrup thickens. Remove from heat. Soak zoolbia in the syrup for about 5 minutes, then
serve.
