Préparation

Whisk the olive oil, orange juice, brandy, sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and orange zest until combined.
Sift in the flour, semolina, and baking soda, then knead briefly into a soft, oily dough.
Shape into small ovals, place on a lined tray, and bake at 180°C for about 25 minutes until golden.
Simmer the honey with the water for 5 minutes, then dip the warm cookies in the syrup for about 15 seconds each.
Chop the walnuts and sprinkle them over the syrup-coated cookies while still warm.
