Samsa or Triangle with Almonds
I try always to be organized but each time my memory plays tricks with me lol. I wanted to make an Algerian sweet with small flowers of different colours. I prepared the dough, I let it rest and then I looked in my cupboard for food colouring and I didn't find any. Oh no, I was too lazy to get out especially with the weather being cold right now. I left the dough in the fridge and at the end of the day I asked myself the famous question, what am I gonna do with this dough now?? I was tired and I didn't want to make a cake that would take me all evening so to save the dough from the freezer, I tried this samsa. And the result is magnificent, a delicious samsa that melts in the mouth and is also very easy to prepare especially if you have Samsa mold. After this successful test, I will prepare it every time that way.

In a bowl, sift flour, make a well and add the melted and cooled margarine and a pinch of salt.

Let to rest.
Prepare the filling: Mix the almonds, sugar and cinnamon, moisten with orange blossom water until well blended.
Divide the dough in half.
Roll a half on a floured surface and place it on the samsa mold.
Put one teaspoon filling in the center of each
