A walk down baklava lane. #greek #baklava #dessert #fyp recipe here in the post copy. FOR THE PASTRY: 2-3 lbs walnuts, 1 cup sugar, 2 sticks butter, melted. 3 heaping tsp cinnamon. Two lbs phyllo dough thawed. Pulse walnuts in a processor combine in a large mixing bowl with 1 cup sugar and the cinnamon. Melt the butter. Brush your (large) pan with butter. Line the pan with phyllo allowing it to cover the sides of the pan as well. Place a layer of phyllo, Brush with butter and repeat. Laying and brushing each layer with melted butter until the first pound (1 whole box) of phyllo is finished. Spread half the walnut mixture onto the bed of layered phyllo. Now lay and butter another 8-10 layers of phyllo. Add the second half of walnut mixture. Lay and butter the remaining phyllo. Put pan in the fridge for an hour or freezer for 30 minutes to make it firm enough to cut. Cut the baklava into diamonds as shown in the video. I measure for the linear cuts so my pieces are around the same size. Trim the edges of the phyllo so they don’t exceed the height of the pan edges. Preheat oven to 350 and bake for around 60 minutes or until golden brown. FOR THE SYRUP: 4 cups of sugar, 1 3/4 cups water, juice of half lemon, juice of half orange, zest of 1 large orange, 1 cup honey, a dozen cloves and 2 or 3 cinnamon sticks. Combine the sugar, water, lemon juice, orange juice, orange zest, cloves and cinnamon sticks in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 minutes and slowly stir in the honey. Simmer for another 5 minutes. Let syrup cool to near room temp. (Make it while pan is in the oven. Carefully pour the syrup over the entire pan so it’s equally covered in the yummyness. Make sure to eat one while they’re hot. Use crumbs for an amazing ice cream sundae topping.

The pasta dish that recently changed pasta for me. #pasta #italian #italy #EasyRecipe @Audible #traveltiktok This prepares two servings. Thinly slice two cloves of garlic. Chop about six anchovy filets. 1 tablesoon crushed calibrian chili peppers. Or sub with any chili like a fresno. 1/4 cup wanuts crushed (not too finely) in a pan go in with a generous amount of olive oil, saute garlic and chilis for one minute. Then add the anchovies and walnuts and saute another 2-3 minutes. Salt your water and boil pasta to a very firm al dente. I used half a pound. You’ll finish the pasta in the sautee pan. Add the pasta (i love bucatini for this) to the saute pan and mix. Pour in some of your pasta water and continue to toss. Add more water to give yourself a little sauce. Fresh pepper to taste. Fresh parsley and parmesean to finish. Mix once more and plate.

Breakfast is served! 🍳 Poached egg over a bed of sauteed spinach and raoster asparagus and prosciutto. #egg #EasyRecipe #food #breakfast Crack a room remp egg into a strainer, place over a bowl and let the loose whites strain off. Bring water to a very low simmer. Add 1 tbsp white venegar and a tsp of salt (they help the white form). Swirl the water with a slotted spoon and genlty roll your egg in. Stir a few times to keep the swirl going. Youll see the whites start to from. Remove egg after about 2 minutes. I went 2:15. For the bed. Trim the purpleish tails off your asparagus. Slice prosciutto slice in half. Lay asparagus on the prosciutto, add fresh pepper and grated parm. Roll up tightly, transfer to a pan and roast at 400 for about 12 minutes. Quickly sautee some fresh spinach. Plate spinach first, then the asparagus rolls on top and transfer your egg to the top of the bed. I garnished with minced fresno peppers and green onion strips and a little flaky salt to finish. 🤤
