Lebanese Nights - Semolina Pudding Cake
“ A tasty and creamy porridge sweetened with the orange flower water!”
Esther Samarno
Original Recipe Author
Lebanese Nights is a flavorful and aromatic dessert, and you can prepare it on the stovetop.
The semolina pudding is rich, creamy, and fluffy, and the orange flower water adds a unique flavor to this pudding.
Orange flower water is highly fragrant and somehow sweet. It can be a little bitter, just like an orange rind. Yet, adding it to this porridge will be an excellent choice if you want to try a new dessert.
But if you don’t like orange flower water, you can prepare this recipe using rose water. But, we recommend using the orange flower water as a flavor booster because of its unique taste.
