  • Preparation: 60 min
  • Cooking: 20 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (56.6 g)
  • Difficulty: Hard
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: alcohol, dairy, egg, gluten, pork

Ingredients

  • 25 g Flour, all-purpose
  • 5 g Egg yolk
  • 6 g Sour cream
  • 1.5 g Vodka or spirit
  • 0.1 g Salt
  • 2 g Egg white (to stick the layers)
  • 8 g Vegetable oil or lard (for frying, the part absorbed)
  • 3 g Icing sugar
  • 6 g Rose petal or raspberry jam

Method

  1. Knead the flour, egg yolk, sour cream, spirit and salt into a smooth, firm dough. Beat it with a rolling pin for a few minutes, folding it over now and then, until small bubbles show when you cut it. Wrap and leave to rest for 30 minutes.
  2. Roll the dough out paper-thin, about 1 mm. Cut out rounds with three sizes of fluted cutters, about 8, 6 and 4 cm across, the same number of each.
  3. Make five short cuts in each round from the edge towards the centre, stopping 1 cm short of the middle.
  4. Stack one round of each size, largest at the bottom, with a dab of egg white between them, and press the centre firmly with a fingertip so the layers stick together.
  5. Heat the oil to 175 °C and fry the roses, top side down first, for about 1 minute on each side until pale golden; the petals open as they fry.
  6. Drain on kitchen paper, dust with icing sugar and put a small spoonful of jam in the centre of each.
