 PREPARATION: step-by-step photographed recipe
Boil the semolina in  salted water, putting it into the pa as soon as the water boils
Stir at intervals and let it cool
and
in the meantime prepare the dough: in a bowl mix the flour, the granulated sugar
a pinch of salt and a little of cold water with OZ 3,52 (100 grams) of sliced butter
Mix  well
until you obtain a ball smooth, elastic and not sticky. Let in stand by for at least half an hour
in a bowl mix the ricotta,  the candied fruits, cinnamon, vanilla,  and the icing sugar and one egg with the semolina. Stir well and let in stand by
Roll the pasta very thin  
if you prefer  use the pasta machine instead the rolling pin
cut it to rectangles having the samedimensions(to be repeated)
 
put the butter in one half(to be repeated)
cover with the other half.(to be repeated)
Press with a rolling pin until the butter will beincorporated into the dough(to be repeated)
Roll the dough and put into  the refrigerator for half an hour. Then take the dough again, unroll and repeat the operation for incorporating the butter. Pay attention: you have to repeat the same operation as shown above for each roll.
As soon as obtained a very thin dough. Roll it again and put into refrigerator for half an hour
Take the roll again and unroll. The dough will become more and more elastic, but use always the rolling pin for turning up, as now it should be in 80 (2 mt) long and in 0,04 (1 mm) thin
the longer is the dough the better
as soon as your dough is very thin, grease your hands with butter or lard and grease slightly the dough, for increasing its elasticity
roll the dough for obtaining a thick roll: its diameter will be the size of the sfogliatella
should the dough become longer than the tableroll the first layer and stick to the second...in this manner the roll will increase in volume
 let it rest in the refrigerator again
when cool cut the roll to slice of in 1/3  ( 1 cm) thick
roll until a small rhombdo not push or they will not become curled
it is possible to use your palm, for better controlling the pressure and giving a concave shape: this is the most critical phase of the recipe
stuff
fold the sfogliatelle carefully by joining the sides
and by turning the bottom up you will obtain the characteristic shape
preheat the oven at  F 390 (C200) : put the sfogliatelle on a baking pan covered by an oven paper
spread the beaten egg on
put into the oven for 20 minutes, then 20 minutes again at F 360 (C 180) and, if necessary, 10 minutes again at F 300 (C 150)
better if oven is ventilated, for a more homogeneous baking. The best is to serve them tepid
but also cold are very good
