Cooking lean manna

There are not many differences from, but they are significant. So, in order to prepare lean lemon manna, the cereal should be poured not with kefir, but with warm water. Instead of eggs used vegetable oil(100 ml.), It must be added to the already swollen semolina at the same time as the rest of the ingredients. The filling can be anything.

Cut the mannik in portions and serve after cooling completely. You can decorate with apple or orange slices. This delicious dessert perfect for a cozy homemade tea party, and as a holiday cake.

Moroccan harsha - baked goods in the form of a tortilla, pie or cookie. The dough for her is made from wheat grits or wholemeal flour. Most often it is prepared from semolina.

Harsha differs from ordinary manna by a pleasant specific aroma due to the addition of orange blossom distillate to the dough. But if in Morocco this flower water can be bought at any grocery store, then in European countries this aromatic additive is a rarity. Therefore, it can be replaced with more affordable flavors: they make lemon manna, with vanilla, orange peel or any fruit essence.

There are many recipes for making harshi. It is baked in the oven in the form of a soft manna or fried without oil in a pan, having previously formed small cakes from the dough.

Harsha can be sweet and salty, lean and rich. But in any case, the dough turns out to be tender, crumbly, melting in the mouth.

Lemon manna

What could be more pleasant on a winter day than hot tea with lemon, and for him - a delicious fragrant lemon manna! Fluffy, crumbly, with a bright lemon hint - this simple cake will charm you with its unique taste!

I have been walking around the bush for a long time about the recipe, and finally, I decided - it's time to bake a manna with lemon at this most citrus, New Year's Eve!

Lemon mannik on kefir is a worthy addition to our collection of manniks, which already contains options with apples, pears, cherries and apricots! This recipe is also interesting because it is flour-free, only on semolina.

Ingredients for Lemon Manna:

• 2 cups semolina
• 1.5 cups of kefir;
• Half a glass of sugar (my glass is 200 grams);
• 75 g butter;
• 1 lemon;
• 1 teaspoon of baking soda without top.

For impregnation, an additional 100 g of sugar, half a glass of water.

Attention! We need a lemon with a thin skin so that a thick layer of skin does not give the cake a bitter taste. How to choose a thin-peeled lemon? I'll tell you now. These lemons have a smooth skin, not lumpy, they are small in size, of the correct "lemon" shape, with a neat "nose".

How to bake lemongrass:

As usual for cooking manna on kefir, fill the semolina with kefir and leave for half an hour.

Then add sugar, pour in melted butter and mix.

Rub the lemon zest on a coarse grater. And so that it does not taste bitter, pre-steam the lemon with boiling water for 5-7 minutes, then take it out and dry it with a towel.

Add lemon zest to the dough and mix.

Prepare the form: grease it thoroughly with a piece of butter and sprinkle with semolina.

Now add soda to the dough, mix thoroughly - the dough will immediately become fluffier! - and put it in the form. It is not necessary to extinguish the soda: kefir and lemon will perfectly cope with this task!

We put the form with manna in the oven and bake at 180C for about 1 hour - until a dry wooden skewer and golden brown on top of the cake.

Now an interesting feature - lemon soak for manna, thanks to which it will become even more delicious, juicy and tender! In the original, you need to dissolve 100 g of sugar in 100 ml of water, and then add lemon juice, the zest from which we used in the dough. But I ran out of sugar, and I added honey :) Let's dissolve honey and sugar in water, cool the syrup a little and add lemon juice there.

I turned the mannik onto the dish, covered it with an oven mitt, and after a few minutes he easily shook himself out of the mold. I did not dare to water it immediately in the form, hot, but what if it collapses? Therefore, I waited until the manna cools down a little, put it back in the mold and poured it with impregnation. And then put it back on the dish.

Lemon manna is ready!

That's how lush in the cut!

Try it, it's delicious, especially with a cup of hot lemon tea. Delicious and healthy for the immune system!
