Instructions: 1. Toast the sesame seeds (soomsoom) at medium heat in the ungreased frying pan. Mix 2 or 3 times. When the seeds turn brownish- in about 5 minutes- pour them onto the foil to cool.

2. Grease the baking pan. Turn the oven on to 375 degrees F.

3. Put the flour and baking powder into the bowl. Mix well, counting 35 to 40 strokes. Then add the oil, sugar, honey, egg and sesame seeds.

Mix again; youll need lots of "elbow grease!"

4. Spread the batter evenly in the pan. Bake for 15 minutes, until the top is golden.

TOPPING:

1. Turn on the broiler to heat.

2. Melt the margarine in the saucepan. Add the honey. Mix and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat right away.

3. Spoon the syrup evenly on the soomsoom. Place the pan under the broiler for one minute or less. Take it out, let it cool, and cut into bars.
