REVANI (GREEK CAKE USING SEMOLINA)
This is a lovely greek cake using semolina. The texture is coarser due to the semolina than what you're probably used to, but it is delicious and toothsome. Soaked in a light syrup and served with some whipped cream on the side, it is a dessert worthy of any occasion.
