After months and months of researching and hesitating, finally I found a good reason to make this famous Hungarian-Jewish cake. Traditionally, it's made in a form of slices (rectangle); I decided to bake it in form of a round (birthday) cake. It does take time, but it's not overly complicated. Result is so worth; 5 layers of pastry, 4 layers of filling...all melting in your mouth.
Happy birthday my dear M!
Ingredients:
-Pastry
500 g flour
250 g butter, diced
100 g icing sugar
2 yolks
1 egg, beaten (reserve 2 tbs for brushing top pastry layer)
120 ml white wine (or apple juice)
-Poppy seed filling
250 g poppy seeds, grounded
120 g sugar
2-3 tbs honey
120 ml white wine (or apple juice)
zest of 1/2 orange (or lemon, or mandarin)
1-2 tbs rum (optional)
-Apple filling
1 kg apples, peeled and grated (7- 8 apples)
100 g sugar
1-2 tsp cinnamon
1 tbs semolina
-Walnut filling
250 g walnuts, grounded
120 g sugar
100 ml white wine (or apple juice)
-Final filling
500 g (a jar) of thick plum / prune jam
1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)
Method:
Pastry- rub butter pieces with flour (it's ok to use food processor) , add other ingredients and make dough. Divide into 5, cover with a cloth and let it rest.
Poppy seed and walnut fillings- Put all ingredients (separately) in 2 pans; cook for few minutes (I use microwave for this). Let it cool.
Apple filling- Grate apples. Let them rest 5 minutes, then squeeze excess juice. Mix apples with sugar, cinnamon and semolina.
Plum filling- mix plum jam with cinnamon.
Roll out 3 parts of the dough slightly bigger than tin which you're going to use (25 cm circle in my case); prick with fork and bake each for 5-6 minutes (they will shrink slightly).
Now you have 2 unbaked and 3 baked pastries.
Assembly-
1- Unbaked pastry at the bottom of a cake tin
2- Poppy seed filling
3- Baked pastry
4- Apple filing
5- Baked pastry
6- Walnut filling
7- Baked pastry
8- Jam filling
9- Unbaked pastry
Brush top of the dough with remaining egg, prick with fork and place in oven 180*C for 10 minutes, then lower to 160-170 *C and bake for another 40 minutes. Let it rest overnight before slicing.

Nakon mjeseci i mjeseci istrazivanja i neodluke, konacno je stigao dan (i razlog) da pokusam napraviti ovaj poznati Madjarsko-Jervejski kolac. Tradicionalno se pravi u obliku pravougaonika; Ja sam odlucila da ga napravim u okruglom obliku (rodjendanske) torte. Treba vremena za njega, ali nije pretjerano komplikovan. Rezultat vrijedi ulozenog truda; 4 sloja razlicitih filovanja, odvojeni sa 5 slojeva tijesta, koji se tope u ustima.
Sretan rodjendan mom dragom M!
Potrebno:
-Tijesto
500 gr brasna
250 gr maslaca, sjecenog na kockice
100 gr secera u prahu
2 zumanca
1 jaje, umuceno (odvojite 2 K za premazivanje)
120 ml bijelog vina (ili soka jabuka)
-Fil od maka
250 gr maka, mljevenog
120 gr secera
2-3 K meda
120 ml bijelog vina (ili soka jabuka)
ribana korica 1/2 narandze (limun ili mandarina)
1-2 K ruma (po zelji)
-Fill od jabuka
1 kg jabuka, izrendanih (7-8 jabuka)
100 gr secera
1-2 k cimeta
1 K griza
-Fil od oraha
250 gr mljevenih oraha
120 gr secera
100 ml bijelog vina (ili soka jabuka)
- Fil od dzema
500 gr (1 tegla) gustog dzema od sljiva
1/2 k cimeta (po zelji)
Nacin:
Umijesite tijesto (utrljajte maslac u brasno i dodajte ostale satojke), podijelite na 5, pokrijte i ostavite odmarati.
Stavite sastojke za filove od maka i oraha u 2 odvojene posude. Prokuhajte par minuta (ja sam to radila u mikrovalnoj). Ostavite prohladiti.
Jabuke izrendajte, ostavite 5-10 minuta, onda istisnite sok. Pomijesajte jabuke sa secerom, cimetom i grizom.
Pomijesajte dzem sa cimetom.
Razvucite 3 kruga ili cetvorougaonika malo veca od vase tepsije. Nabodite tijesto i pecite svaki krug oko 5-6 minuta.
Slaganje-
1- Nepeceni krug tijesta (na dno tepsije / obruca)
2- Fil od maka
3- Peceni krug tijesta
4- Fil od jabuka
5- Peceni krug tijesta
6- Fil od oraha
7- Peceni krug tijesta
8- Fil od dzema
9- Nepeceni krug tijesta
Premazite povrsinu sa preostalim umucenim jajetom, nabodite viljuskom i smjestite u rernu na 180*C oko 10 minuta, zatim smanjite na 160-170*C i pecide jos 40 minuta dodatno. Najbolje rezati sljedeci dan!
