Directions
1. Step
Grind the blanched almonds in a blender until finely ground. Add the sugar, softened butter, cinnamon, and optional caraway seeds mixed with sugar. Combine well to form a smooth, malleable dough.
2. Step
Mix the almond paste with 1 teaspoon of honey and gradually add the orange blossom water until the mixture holds together. Shape it into long, thin rolls. Cut the filo or brick sheets into strips, place some almond filling on one end, and fold into triangles. Seal the edges using egg whites or a flour-water mixture.
3. Step
Heat oil in a deep pan and fry the pastries until golden brown. Once fried, immediately dip them in warm honey for a few minutes to absorb the flavor. Drain excess honey and let them cool slightly before serving.
