QATAYEF (ARABIC STUFFED PANCAKES)

What You’ll Need

  • To make the pancakes:
  •  
  • 1/2 teaspoon instant active dry yeast
  •  
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  •  
  • 1 1/4 cups warm water (approximately 110F)
  •  
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (wheat flour can also be used)
  •  
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  •  
  • For the filling:
  •  
  • 1 cup walnuts, chopped
  •  
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  •  
  • 1 tablespoon orange blossom water (optional)
  •  
  • For the syrup
  •  
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  •  
  • 1 3/4 cups light corn syrup
  •  
  • 1/4 cup Orange blossom or rose water
  •  
  • 1/3 cup warm water
  •  

How to Make It

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in water inside the measuring cup for 10 minutes, or until it proofs (become frothy). If your yeast does not proof, it means the yeast is bad or the water was not warm enough or too hot. Remember that yeast is a live organism and needs the proper environment to work properly!

In a separate bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the proofed yeast and sugar water mixture. Combine well, cover and allow to sit in a warm area for 30-45 minutes.

While the pancake mix is proofing, prepare the filling. In a small bowl, mix together the walnuts with the sugar. Add the orange blossom water if desired. Cover and set aside.

This is now a good time to prepare the syrup. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water and corn syrup. Bring to a boil and add the orange blossom or rose water. Stir well to prevent sticking. Reduce the heat to low and allow to sit until ready to use.

Preheat a griddle or frying pan to medium-high heat. Using a ladle, make a 5-inch pancake with the batter. Once the batter begins to bubble on top, remove the pancake from griddle and set aside. Do not flip, as you are only cooking one side. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Preheat 1 inch of oil in a frying pan to medium-high heat. While the oil is heating, take 1 tablespoon of nut filling and place it on top of the uncooked side of the pancake. Fold the pancake in half to make a half moon shape and seal the edges by pressing together. Repeat with the remaining pancakes and filling.

Fry on each side until a light golden brown color (about 15-30 second each side). Drain on a towel-lined plate.

Drizzle the syrup generously over the qatayef and serve immediately.

TURKISH BAKLAVA

Ingredients

  • For the Filling
  • 2 cups (8 oz) finely chopped almonds
  • 1 cup (4 oz) finely chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 cup (2 oz ) caster (superfine) sugar
  • 2-3 tbsp bread crumbs (optional. It helps to bind the filling. I dint use it in this recipe. I came to know of this trick later)
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp ground cloves
  • For the syrup
  • 2 cups (1 lb) sugar
  • 2 cups (16 fl oz) water
  • 1 stick cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • For the cover
  • 150 grams (5 oz) unsalted butter, melted
  • 12 oz packet filo pastry (375g) (see how to make Phyllo dough from scratch here)

Method

Place all the ingredients under ‘filling’ in a bowl.

2. Combine until blended. Meanwhile place all the ingredients for the syrup together in a saucepan and bring it to a boil, while stirring for the sugar to dissolve. Simmer for 10 minutes and leave it to cool.

3. Brush a 12X10 in baking dish with butter. Brush 10 sheets of filo with melted butter.

4. Lay them on the dish one by one.

5. Spread the filling in the dish.

6. Now top it off with further 10-12 sheets of pastry, buttering each sheet as needed. You can trim off the excess pastry hanging on the side of your baking dish. Now brush the top of the pastry with more butter.

7. With a sharp knife, score the top layers in large diamond shapes.

8. Bake in a preheated 160C (325F) oven for 1 hour or until the top turns golden brown. If you find that the top is turning color too quickly, then cover the top with foil.

9. Remove from the oven and slowly pour the syrup over the top.

10. Now comes the MOST DIFFICULT part. You have gotta to let it sit for at least 5-6 hours for it to absorb the syrup.
