| Sesame seed and honey
sticks (Meni-meniyong) Remember
to ask an adult to help you with this recipe.
Ingredients:
1 cup/100g sesame seeds
50g margarine
1 cup/350ml honey or 1 cup/175g sugar
Method:
1. Heat the
sesame seeds in a shallow pan without any oil, until they begin to jump about and turn
golden. Shake the pan so that they do not stick or burn. Allow to cool.
2. Using a heavy
pan, heat the margarine or oil and then add the sugar or honey. Stir continuously until
the mixture begins to caramelise (which is when it turns slightly brown, but without
burning).
3. Pour the
sesame seeds into the warm mixture and stir thoroughly.
4. Transfer the
mixture into a flat tin. As the mixture cools, shape it into sticks either by cutting or
rolling, and then coating it with more sesame seeds if required. |
