Cuisine

With a deep-rooted history, Miyane Halva is the centerpiece of cultural events and family gatherings in the Merkez district. The most important trick is patiently roasting the flour in a mixture of butter and oil until it changes color. Shaped with a spoon after meeting the syrup, this dessert can be tasted at local shops, which you can locate via the Harita section. It is a symbol of hospitality in Karabük.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of flour
  • 125 grams of butter
  • Half a Turkish tea glass of vegetable oil
  • 1.5 cups of sugar
  • 2 cups of water or milk

Preparation

  1. Combine water (or milk) and sugar in a pot, heating until the sugar dissolves to make the syrup.
  2. Melt the butter and oil in a wide pan, then add the flour.
  3. Roast the flour over low heat, stirring constantly, until it turns deep golden and fragrant.
  4. Slowly pour the warm syrup into the roasted flour, stir quickly until absorbed, then shape with a spoon and serve.
