Method
Rub the semolina with the ghee and leave for several hours to absorb it.
Add the water and knead until the dough comes together.
Shape into balls, fill them with dates or ground pistachios, seal them and decorate them with a wooden mould.
Bake until cooked without letting them colour too much, and dust with icing sugar once cooled.
