Pischies is a Cypriot traditional pastry dessert made with dough and were fried and then bathed in syrup.
These pastries are very easy to make and very tasty. You can make them from scratch but we usually make pischies when we have left over dough and of course we have left over syrup, after preparing daktyla or anything else made from dough, so we have a different and very delicious pastry as well.
Instead of bathing them in the syrup, which is the traditional way, you can serve them with honey, petimezi, left over syrup from spoon sweets or any other syrup you like.
For personal reasons the recipe has been removed. If you would like the recipe I would gladly send it to you by e-mail. You may contact me through the contact page which you will find on top of the header.

“Sis” Ivy is that you???…wink…wink…I don’t have my glasses on dear
These pishies sound amazing. My mom used to add raisins to leftover pie dough and this was better to me than the pie!! In fact I love to eat raw dough…that should have been one of my bad habits in the MEME!!

Let me try and translate a proverb we say here in Greece. Where you are, I used to be, and where I am, you will soon be. Meaning that I was once your age but soon you will become my age (I like this wink, wink).
