Other kinds of sweet (turkish origin also) is Aeshel saraya, imagine what does this mean? bread of the palace. :) It is made of french bread but made in expanded layers, then cooked into the oven and soaked with syrup. Then topped with fresh cream (very rich) and sometimes nuts.
This is very delicious.
Egyptain traditional sweet includes something like panack called fetteer, however, this feteer may be made into neutral or sweet (stuffed with cream, honey or jam, or sprinkled with sugar, or sometimes made into saltish stuffed with cheese...etc). We also use the neutral one to eat cheese or honey.
Actually the Egyptian kitchen is very rich and complicated.
Asalaamu alikum wa rhamatuhallahi wa barakatuh,
Fetteer, now that is so delicious. Once you start eating it, you can not stop! Ataif is very good too. I am not sure of the english spelling Muslimah, insha'Allah I will write it in Arabic later when I have more time if you do not know what I mean. Kunafah with the sweet cheese between the layers is my favorite. OK now I want sweets! :peace: The Eygptian kitchen is very rich and tasty ^_^
