       7 oz (200g) ground hazelnuts or
       7 oz (200g) almonds (blanched and
            Ground)
   3 1/2 oz (100g) sugar

   roll out the pastry to a rectangle 14X18 in. (35X45cm)

   egg white and 1/2 egg yolk with as much of the water

   the longer side, roll up the pastry like a swiss roll:
   form the roll into a ring and lay on a greased baking
