👨‍🍳 Instruktioner

1
Prepare the fillings and qatayef. Ensure your ashta is cold and firm. Roughly crush the pistachios. If your sugar syrup is very thick, you can warm it slightly to make it easier to drizzle.
⏱️ 5 minutes
2
Gently open each qatayef pancake. Hold one qatayef in your hand and carefully peel open the two layers to create a pocket. Be gentle to avoid tearing.
⏱️ 5 minutes
3
Fill the qatayef. Using a spoon, generously fill the pocket of each qatayef with the chilled ashta. Don't overfill, but ensure a good amount of cream is inside.
⏱️ 10 minutes
4
Seal and garnish. Pinch the open edges of each filled qatayef together to seal, forming a half-moon shape. Place the sealed qatayef on a serving platter. Sprinkle the crushed pistachios generously over the top of each qatayef.
⏱️ 5 minutes
5
Drizzle with syrup. Just before serving, drizzle the sugar syrup evenly over all the qatayef. Add the teaspoon of rose water to the syrup if using, and stir well before drizzling.
⏱️ 2 minutes
