Purim Baba (Pareve)
Ilana Cohen is a qualified chef who worked in five-star hotels both in Israel and Australia. On a quest for something slightly different to serve for Purim, she found this pastry prepared by the Iraqi Jews of Baghdad for Purim. She gave it a test run, devoured about five of them and decided that they are really 'good tucker' and worth a bit of fussing around with the yeast dough.
