Boil the sugar, syrup water, and lemon juice for 12 minutes, then cool.
Knead a firm dough with flour, eggs, water, and salt.
Rest the dough for 20 minutes and divide into balls.
Roll the balls thinly with starch and scatter walnuts over the surfaces.
Roll up the thin pastry sheets and cut them into diagonal slices.
Fry the slices in hot oil for 5 minutes, turning constantly.
Dip the hot sweets into cold syrup and drain for 8 minutes.
💡 Tip: Rolling the dough thin with starch helps the layers stay crisp after frying.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: After draining from the syrup, sprinkle with crushed walnuts and serve at room temperature.
