Ingredients
- 3 cups almond
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cardamon
- 2 tbsp rose water or orange blossom water
- 1 package fillo pastry
Directions
Grind the almonds and mix together with all the ingredients. The mixture should be moist.
Cut the fillo in 3 parts and cover with a damp towel. Take one piece of fillo and fold it about 2 inches from the bottom up. Insert a pencil in the fold. Put one tablespoon of the mixture and roll. Push the 2 sides to the middle and slide the pencil out. Bake in a preheated over at 350 degrees for 10 minutes, until light golden in color.
