Ay Coregi ( means crescent roll ). its a rustic recipe..You can see it in every patisserie in Turkey usually on window display.
Ingredients:
1 egg
3tbsp sugar
1/2 stick butter-cold-cut into chunks
pinch of salt
1 cup cold milk
2 tsp fast-active dry yeast
4 cups all purpose flour
filling : essentials are
2 tea spoon cinnamon
2 tea spoon cocoa powder
3 cups crumbs( from biscuits, cakes, breads)
3/4 cup roughly chopped nuts or walnuts
3/4 sultanas, and water to make a dough.
Directions:
1. Knead alltogether till it is homogenised and cleared from side of the bowl. Put in the fridge.
2. Have 3 cups filling.
3. I used every piece of edible thing found in my fridge like peanuts, what's left at the bottom of the biscuit tin, some hardened turkish delights, peanut butter sandwich pieces, marzipan, my previous cake failure, unwanted sandwich crusts, lots of chocolate and essentials of course .
4. You should heat them in a saucepan adding water bit by bit to make a stiff dough.If they are leaving sticky residue in your palm when you are shaping them into little logs, it is perfect.
5. Then take the white dough out of the fridge. Take a walnut size piece, give an oval shape with rolling pin-3 mm in thickness, put the filling, their length should be same, roll the dough around it. Press gently with your palms to make them longer, give a crescent shape. Put on a greased baking sheet. Continue to do so.
6. Brush them generously with egg yolk- sugar mix, decorate with flaked almonds.Put in a warm oven.....when its getting golden brown ıts ready to serve .. with coffe or tea..
