# Mazurek
Mazurek is a traditional Polish flat cake made in many homes for Easter. Many
different toppings are possible.
## Ingredients
* 2 1/2 cups flour
* 1/4 cup powdered sugar
* 200g (7 oz) butter
* 1 tablespoon 18% sour cream
* 2 egg yolks
* topping: for example [orange jam](orange-jam.html) from 4 oranges
* optional additional toppings/decorations:
* walnuts
* pecans
* raisins
* sliced almonds
## Directions
1. Put flour and butter in a bowl.
2. Cut the butter with a sharp knife into tiny pieces, mixing with the flour.
3. Add egg yolks, sugar, sour cream, and a pinch of salt.
4. Knead well and form into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and let chill in fridge
for about an hour.
5. Roll out flat and place in large baking sheet (this should be enough for a
25x35cm/10x14in sheet) on top of parchment paper.
6. Make little holes with fork in the dough.
7. Bake for 15-20 minutes in 200°C (395°F).
8. Let cool before spreading topping.
9. Decorate with nuts or other toppings.

# Orange jam
This jam is a traditional topping for the Polish [mazurek](mazurek.html), but
can be used as a generic sweet spread.
## Ingredients
* 4 medium sized oranges
* 1 lemon
* 1 1/2 cup sugar
## Directions
1. Zest all fruit.
2. Peel of the albedo.
3. Blend the fruit (not too much, it doesn't need to become an even mush, just
cut up into small pieces).
4. Combine the blended fruit, zest, and sugar in a pot.
5. Bring to boil and boil for 30-40 minutes on low heat. The mixture will
thicken as water evaporates. Note that it will thicken even further once it
cools, so don't boil for too long - it is expected to be still a little runny
at the end of boiling.
