Ingrediente / ingredients:

Aluat / Dough::

- 400 g faina  - 400g flour
- 1 ou - 1 egg
- 1 galbenus - 1 yolks
- 1  praf de copt - 1  baking powder
- 150 g unt - 150 g butter
- 200 g zahar - 200 g sugar

Crema / Cream:
- 1l  lapte - 1l milk
- coaja rasa de la o  lamaie - Zest of one lemon
- esenta de vanilie - Vanilla
- 8 galbenusuri - 8 yolks
- 250 g zahar - 250 g sugar
- 100 g amidon alimentar - 100 g food starch

Pentru inceput ne ocupam de aluat: amestecam faina, untul, zaharul si praful de copt. Adaugam oul si galbenusul de ou. Compozitia obtinuta trebuie sa fie destul de sfaramicioasa. Se pune intr-o folie alimentara si se tine la frigider cel putin o ora.

First we handle the dough: Mix the flour, butter, sugar and baking powder. Add the egg and egg yolk. The composition obtained must be quite crumbly. Place in a food wrap and refrigerate at least one hour.

Crema - se pune laptele la fiert impreuna cu coaja de lamaie. Galbenusurile se bat cu zaharul pana se albesc si apoi se adauga amidonul. Amestecul format se toarna putin cate putin, amestecand continuu peste laptele fierbinte. Se lasa la foc mic pana se ingroasa crema. La final se adauga esenta de vanilie.

Cream - is put to boil milk with lemon zest. Beat yolks with sugar until whiten and then add starch. The mixture is poured little by little, stirring constantly over the hot milk. Allow to simmer until thick cream. Finally add the vanilla.

Aluatul il impartim in doua. Intindem 2 foi. Punem o foaie pe fundul tavii, o intepam cu furculita si adaugam crema.

We divide dough in half. Stretch 2 sheets. Put a sheet pan bottom, a prick with a fork and add the cream.

Deasupra punem cealalta foaie si bagam la cuptor pana se rumeneste frumos, aproximativ 40 minute.

Above put  the other sheet and stuffing in the oven until browned nicely, about 40 minutes.

Se lasa sa se raceasca si apoi se serveste.

Este delicioasa!

Allow to cool and then serve.

It is delicious!

Bon appetite!
