Avgokalàmara

For the avgokalàmara:

5 eggs

5 tablespoons oil

5 tablespoons sugar

5 tablespoons tsikoudià for dredging

1 glass milk

1 packet baking powder

Flour

For the syrup:

1 glasses sugar

1 glass water

1 glass honey

Cinnamon, walnuts and sesame

 

Preparation:

Beat the olive oil with the sugar, the tsikoudia, the eggs, the milk and the baking powder. Slowly add the flour and knead well. Roll out a 1/2cm thick pastry sheet, cut it into squares of 10x10cm, twist them up in the shape of a cone, or tie them into knots. You can create all kinds of shapes and deep-fry them in hot oil. Then, place them on a paper towel. Prepare the syrup and immerse the avgokalamara in the boiling syrup. Allow each one to soak for a while and then place them on a platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, cinnamon, coarsely ground walnuts and some sugar.
