100gr sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 teaspoon nutmeg
½ orange zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
20-30 blanched almonds for garnish

Preparation:
In a baking pan, roast the sesame seeds and crush them. In a pot, heat the honey and let simmer until losing some of the moisture. Add the sesame seeds, lemon juice, orange zest and spices. Stir well and spread onto a wet marble surface. Press the almonds into the mixture while still hot and cut into thin strips. Set aside and let cool. Once hard, cut the “melekouni” into diamond-shaped pieces.
