Prepare Marzipan
Ingredients :
200g caju nuts
3 tbsps. Rose water
1 egg white
200g icing sugar
2 tsps. Almond essence
Any edible colour
Preparation :
Grind the nuts fine into rose water.
Take a bowl, beat egg white lightly and mix in nut paste and the remaining ingredients. Keep the bowl over a pan half filled with water. Do not allow the bowl to touch the water.
Keep the pan with the bowl on the fire. Stir mixture continuously and when it begins to leave the sides on the bowl keep the pan down from the fire.
Transfer the mixture to a marble slab or a wide plate and quickly knead to smooth dough, otherwise the mixture will turn hard.
A little rose water may be mixed if the mixture turns hard. Divide the dough into small balls and make various fruit shapes.
If a marzipan fruit mold is used, do not use colour but paint the fruits with edible colours after removing them from the mould.
