Delicious Šúĺlance s Makom Recipe - Authentic Slovakian Dessert

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 cup poppy seeds
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 tbsp butter (melted)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare Poppy Seed Filling

    In a saucepan, combine poppy seeds with water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 20 minutes, then drain and set aside.

    Ensure poppy seeds are finely ground for a smoother filling.
  2. Make Dough

    In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, and salt. Add melted butter, egg, and milk. Knead until smooth.

    Let the dough rest for 30 minutes to improve elasticity.
  3. Roll out Dough

    On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick.

    Use a rolling pin dusted with flour to prevent sticking.
  4. Cut and Fill

    Cut the dough into squares, place a spoonful of poppy seed filling in the center, and fold into triangles.

    Seal the edges well to prevent filling from leaking.
  5. Cook Šúĺlance

    Boil a large pot of salted water. Drop in the filled triangles and cook until they float to the surface.

    Do not overcrowd the pot; cook in batches for even cooking.
  6. Serve

    Remove from water, drain, and optionally sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.

    Serve warm for the best flavor.
