INSTRUCTIONS
[NOTE: Original recipe calls for "1-1/2 glasses of oil and 1-1/2
glasses of orange juice". No mention of what size glass, as is
typical of Greek cookbooks.] Combine the oil, the orange juice and
sugar. Dissolve the soda with the brandy and add it to the mixture
also; add the cinnamon and the ground cloves. Then very gradually add
the flour, stirring constantly. Finally, combine the walnuts and the
raisins with the mixture. Coat a medium-sized baking tin to spread the
mixture evenly. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for 40-50 minutes.
