HELEN SPICER
Born in Narol, Poland, in the 1930s, my childhood was not a good
one. A year aer the war broke out, my family and I were sent to a
labour camp in Siberia for the duration of the war. When we wereliberated and tried to leave Russia, we sat for many weeks at the train
station in diffi cult and miserable conditions, before living in a refugee
camp in Germany for five more diffi cult years.
In 1955, I moved to Australia, via a few years in San Francisco,
where my sisters had already settled. Melbourne became my new home
and I soon met and wed Jerry Spicer. We were blessed with four sons
and our family is now complete with many grandchildren who live all
over the world.In my early years of married life, I admit to having many cooking
disasters but, with perseverance and practice, baking became my specialty.
My mother, a very traditional Jewish cook, provided guidance
with her motto; if you cant find the right ingredients it isnt worth
making. Baking always reminds me of my mother as she also enjoyed
it, especially traditional Jewish and European cakes and biscuits.

Start this recipe the day before serving.Place the flours in a large bowl and add the egg yolks, sugar, sour cream,
butter and vanilla. Mix by hand until a so dough forms. You can also
make it in the food processor. Shape the dough into a log, cover with
plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat the oven to 180C (350F/Gas 4). Line a baking tray.
Cut the dough into six pieces. Roll the first piece into a rectangle
about 20 x 30 cm (8 x 12 inches). Spread on a light coating of chocolate
hazelnut spread and jam. Sprinkle with some of the walnuts and driedfruit and roll into a firm roll, seam side down. Trim the ends and cut the
roll into 8 even pieces. Brush the top of each piece with the egg white and
then dip the top into the sugar. Place on the prepared tray, sugared side
up. Repeat with the remaining pieces of dough. Bake for 30 minutes, or
until golden.

e first time I made rogala was by default. I planned on making a strudel but didnt have any apples, so I used only
cinnamon and sultanas and made small rolls. Not satisfied with the result, I added jam and nuts and my rogala were
created. My sons have grown up with the smells of my cooking, but my rogala is always the family favourite.
