STORYLINE:

If you have never tried Tamriyeh before, it is basically fried golden pillows of paper thin dough that are filled with a semolina pudding ,scented with mastic and orange blossom water. Tamriyeh is usually served hot (for you to enjoy it before the crust loses its crunch) and it is usually dusted with powdered sugar for a little extra sweetness.

There are a number of stories behind the name Tamriyeh, some say that the name was given to the dessert by the chef who created it, in reference to his hometown Tamra. Others say that the name refers to the fact that the pudding is buried in the dough (In arabic bury means “Tamar”)
