    Terrible recipe because the temp is too low. It did not cook at 200 degrees even after it was in oven for 40 minutes.

    Basboosa- Haressa Semolina Cake, So many versions of this exist and I have tried them all This northern middleeast version (syria-lebanon-jordan) doesn’t use eggs and so tastes less cake like This is my favourite version and it is the classic one! I only use one heaped cup of coarse ground semolina, to make thin squares , Terrible recipe because the temp is too low It did not cook at 200 degrees even after it was in oven for 40 minutes , So many versions of this exist and I have tried them all This northern middleeast version (syria-lebanon-jordan) doesn’t use eggs and so tastes less cake like This is my favourite version and it is the classic one!
