Latvian Poppy Seed and Apple Strudel - Latvia traditional dish

🧂 재료

12 sheets Filo dough sheets
6 large Apples(peeled, cored, and cut into 1.5 cm cubes)
0.5 large Lemon(zest and juice)
4 tablespoons Bread crumbs
8 tablespoons Poppy seeds
200 g Butter(melted)
5 tablespoons Sugar(adjust to taste)
1 sachet Vanilla sugar

👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
2
In a bowl, combine the cubed apples, poppy seeds, lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, vanilla sugar, and bread crumbs. Mix well.
3
Lay one sheet of filo dough on a clean work surface. Brush it generously with melted butter. Repeat with two more sheets, stacking them on top of the first.
4
Spread half of the apple and poppy seed filling evenly over the filo sheets, leaving a 1cm border.
5
Lay another sheet of filo dough on top and brush lightly with melted butter, especially on the edges. Repeat with the last two sheets of filo.
6
Spread the remaining filling over the top filo layer.
7
Carefully roll up the dough from one of the longer sides to form a strudel, gently tucking in the filling as you go.
8
Place the strudel seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the top with melted butter.
9
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the strudel is golden brown and crispy.

💡 전문가 팁

✓The bread crumbs help absorb excess juice from the apples, preventing a soggy strudel.
✓Ensure the filo dough is kept covered with a damp cloth while you work to prevent it from drying out.
✓For a richer flavor, a small amount of ground cinnamon or nutmeg can be added to the apple-poppy seed mixture.
