Ingredients:

• 300 gr of lukewarm water (you can put 150 water for yeast and 150 orange juice)
• 100 gr of oil
• 130 gr of sugar
• 2 vanillas
• 16 gr machlepi
• 3 gr kakkoule (cardamom)
• 3 gr of mastic
• 200 gr raisins
• 2 sachets of dry yeast
• 750 gr of hard flour
• Zest and juice from an orange
• A pinch of salt

Execution:

I put all the ingredients in the bucket of the mixer except the water, the sugar and the yeast that I melt separately and then I put them in the mixer. Knead with the batter until the mixture is homogenous. I leave the dough covered to rest for an hour. I shape the dough into a plait shape and let it rest for 1 hour. I spread the buns with water and sugar and bake them at 180 degrees, in the air until they are well browned.
Good luck!!!
