For the cake: 1 cup (160 g) semolina ½ cup (65 g) flour 2 tsp baking powder 3 eggs ½ cup (100 g) sugar 1 cup (230 g) yogurt 1 cup (180 ml) olive oil
How to make it: Combine sugar & water, bring to a boil, then simmer for 20 minutes. Add lemon juice and wedges, simmer a few more minutes, and let it cool completely.
Mix semolina, flour & baking powder. In another bowl, whisk eggs & sugar until fluffy, then add yogurt & oil. Now add the dry ingredients and mix everything well. Pour into a greased baking pan.
Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25-30 min or until golden. Let it sit for 5 min, then slice.
Pour the cooled syrup over the warm cake and let it soak for about an hour. Garnish with pistachios or coconut, and enjoy!
