Egyptian Baklava
A rich and celebratory Egyptian nut pastry featuring delicate layers of phyllo dough, a fragrant nut filling, and a sweet, floral syrup. Perfect for special occasions.
🧂 食材
- 500 g Phyllo dough sheets(Thawed according to package directions. Keep covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying.)
- 400 g Mixed nuts(A mix of pistachios, walnuts, and almonds is traditional. Finely chopped.)
- 300 g Ghee(Clarified butter. Melted.)
- 500 ml Sugar syrup(Chilled. Can be made ahead by simmering equal parts sugar and water, then adding a squeeze of lemon juice. Let cool completely.)
- 2 tbsp Rose water(For flavoring the nut mixture or syrup.)
- 1 tsp Ground cinnamon(Optional, for the nut filling.)
- 0.5 tsp Ground cloves(Optional, for the nut filling.)
👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Prepare the nut filling: In a bowl, combine the finely chopped mixed nuts with 1 tablespoon of rose water, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves (if using). Mix well until fragrant. Set aside.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 2
Prepare the baking dish: Brush the bottom and sides of a rectangular baking dish (approximately 9x13 inches or similar) generously with melted ghee.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Layer the phyllo: Carefully unroll the thawed phyllo dough. Place one sheet into the prepared dish, brushing it lightly with ghee. Continue layering, brushing each sheet with ghee, until you have about 8-10 layers. Ensure the edges are tucked in neatly.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 4
Add the nut filling: Evenly spread the prepared nut mixture over the phyllo layers. Press down gently to compact it.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Top with more phyllo: Continue layering phyllo sheets on top of the nuts, brushing each sheet with ghee, until you have used another 8-10 layers. Ensure the top layer is well-brushed with ghee for a golden finish.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 6
Score the baklava: Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the baklava into diamond shapes. Cut all the way through to the bottom layer. This allows the syrup to penetrate later.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 7
Bake the baklava: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is a deep golden brown and the edges are crisp. You should hear a gentle crackling sound as it bakes.
⏱️ 40-45 minutes - 8
Syrup and serve: Immediately after removing the hot baklava from the oven, pour the chilled sugar syrup evenly over the entire surface. You should hear a satisfying sizzle. If using, stir the remaining 1 tablespoon of rose water into the syrup before pouring. Let the baklava cool completely to room temperature (at least 2-3 hours) to allow the syrup to soak in.
⏱️ 2-3 hours (cooling)
💡 專業提示
- ✓The key to crispy baklava is brushing every single phyllo layer with ghee. Don't be shy!
- ✓Always pour cold syrup over hot baklava (or vice versa) for the best texture and absorption. This recipe calls for cold syrup on hot baklava.
- ✓Ensure your phyllo dough is completely thawed but still moist. If it starts to dry out, cover it with a damp kitchen towel while you work.
- ✓Egyptian baklava often has a slightly softer texture than Greek versions due to the syrup and nut ratios.
