In Greek: χαλβάς, pronounced hal-VAHS. This recipe for halvas calls for (предусматривает, требует, необходимость) almonds and raisins, and the result is a delightful pudding, topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon. A Lenten (постящихся, вегетарианцев) favorite, halvas contains no eggs or dairy products. And as there are few teachers here in our office (Yappi) who are feasting this spring, I feel my duty (долг) to made one more recipe dedicated to “no-dairy product” cousin.

In a deep frying pan, preheat oil over medium-high heat (на среднем огне). Add semolina slowly (медленно! всыпать манку), stirring constantly (периодически помешивая). (The longer it cooks, the darker it will become.)

Spoon the mixture into a large square mold (прямоугольную форму) and bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven at 160 C. When ready, carefully and slowly (аккуратно и медленно) stir the syrup into the semolina mixture.
