Cooking Instructions:
1.In a bowl, combine the fine semolina, sugar, baking powder, desiccated coconut, egg, melted butter, and vanilla essence. Add the curd and whisk until evenly combined.
2.Grease an ovenproof pan with butter. Pour the batter into the pan. Tap on the counter a few times to flatten the surface.
3.Refrigerate for an hour.
4.Meanwhile, we can prepare the sugar syrup and almonds.
5.In a saucepan, add the water and sugar and bring to a boil. Add the lemon juice. If there is any foam or impurities floating on the surface, remove and discard them. Let it simmer for 10 minutes.
6.Remove the sugar syrup from the heat and add in the rose water. Set aside.
7.Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Add the almonds and boil for 1 minute or until they start to puff up. Remove the almonds from the water and remove the skin.
8.Once the batter has been refrigerated and has firmed up a little, cut them into squares. Place a blanched almond on each piece.
9.Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 35 minutes or until it turns golden brown.
10.Remove from the oven. Pour the sugar syrup over the baked Basbousa.
11.Bake again for another 10 minutes.
12.This can be served warm or chilled.
Cooking Tips:
1.You can use orange blossom water instead of rose water, to flavour the sugar syrup.
2.You can substitute half the quantity of the fine semolina with Maida to produce a more cake-like texture.
