    For the strained yoghurt, can you simply use labneh instead of actually straining it as I’m considering this recipe to make in school and we don’t really get enough time.
    Thanks tho

  2. This sounds like a lovely, light, and easy desert that I would like to make. But I have no idea what these biscuits are. Can you help me understand what they are, or better yet, what is a common grocery store replacement? Thank you so much!

  3. it was realy good and easy
