  • 100 GRAM RAISINS
  • 50 GRAM DATES, chopped

Mix all ingredients (keep some sesame seeds for decoration) and knead firmly for 15 minutes. Roll out the dough to a rectangular shape with the width of a bread tin, and roll it up. Put in the bread tin, and sprinkle the top first with some water and then sesame seed. Leave the bread to rise for one and a half hour. Bake 35 minutes at 200 degrees.

Mix all ingredients. Put the batter in a cake or bread tin. Bake 40 minutes at 180 degrees.


The semolina makes the bread nice and firm and gives a delicious crust. Great for children: normally they will not eat the crust, but now they will eat the crust first.
