What is Semolina cake with peanuts?
Semolina cake with peanuts is a syrup-soaked cake made with semolina and topped with or folded together with peanuts. It fits the tradition of syrupy home-baked sweets found in Turkish cooking; recipes may also use flour, eggs and dairy in the batter.
The semolina gives the cake a slightly grainy crumb, while the syrup makes it moist and the peanuts add a roasted, crunchy contrast. In Turkey it is commonly sliced and served with tea or after a meal. It suits anyone who enjoys rich, syrupy desserts; for a lighter serving, keep the piece small and pair it with unsweetened tea. At 372 calories per 100 g, it is an energy-dense sweet rather than an everyday snack.
