Directions
Harissa, Harisa, Haresa Arabic Semolina Cake,I was looking for a varition of our families Harissa recipe but was suprised that Zarr did’nt have anything close to what we love to make every Ramadan and special occasion. Us Palestinians love sweets. So here it is and enjoy!,I couldn’t find blanched almonds anywhere so used whole roasted almonds instead.,I never would’ve thought to make a cake with semolina flour but this one was so good. It was moist and tender. The syrup is what really makes the cake!
