1. Cream the butter and one cup sugar. Stir in a 1/2 cup water. 2. Sift together the semolina, baking powder, and stir into the butter mixture to form a smooth batter. 3. Preheat the oven to 350°F. 4. Lightly grease an 8-by-12-inch cake pan and pour in the batter. Spread it evenly with the back of a spoon and then score across the top of the cake. Place an almond in the center of each diamond. 5. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, when the cake should be firm and lightly browned. 6. Combine three cups sugar, lemon juice, and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes or until slightly thickened. Cool. 7. Pour cooled syrup, spoonfuls at a time, over the hot cake. Stop when the cake will not absorb any more and set the cake aside to cool before serving. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
