Recipe - Simit (Turkish Croissant With Sesame Seeds)

8 ounce Flour
One half teaspoon Salt
2 ounce Margarine
1 tablespoon Olive oil
1 tablespoon Milk, plus extra
1 tablespoon Water
1 Egg
Sesame seeds

Put the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a hole in the middle. Into
this hole pour the melted marg, olive oil, milk, water and beaten egg.

Stirring from the outside into the middle gradually mix all the liquids
into the flour until you have a dough. It will feel a bit oily, but is
quite manageable. With floured hands shape the dough into rings about the
diameter of a saucer and arrange them on a baking sheet. Brush them over
with milk and sprinkle the sesame seeds on them. Bake them in a 400 degree
oven for approx. 30 min. or until they are nicely browned.
