Simit (Turkish Croissant with Sesame Seeds)

 

8 ozs. flour

1 tbsp. milk, plus extra

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tbsp. water

2 ozs. margarine

1 egg

1 tbsp. olive oil

sesame seeds (I use toasted ones)

 

Put the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a hole

in the

middle. Into this hole pour the melted margarine,

olive oil, milk, water

and beaten egg.

Stirring from the outside into the middle gradually

mix all the

liquids into the flour until you have a dough. It will

feel a bit

oily, but is quite manageable. With floured hands

shape the dough

into rings about the diameter of a saucer and arrange

them on a

baking sheet. Brush them over with milk and sprinkle

the sesame

seeds on them. Bake them in a 400 degree oven for

approx. 30 minutes or until they are nicely browned.
