Fusion Birds Nest Baklawa
U guys knw how much i love creating , and trust me guys this fusion combination of kunafa and baklawa isss toooo dieeeee forrrr. U shld surely try this out.
U have to use kataifi ( kunafa dough ) for this as it won’t work with basic sevai , u can use those soft white ones that are available in some cities.
Kunafa dough from @stop._n_shop
I have used my kunafa filling recipe which is posted previously naziafarhanarabic, u can also use just cream cheese , al marai / nestle cream , and nutella as well for the topping.
Prepare sugar syrup by boiling half cup sugar and half cup water for 2-3 mins , u can also add saffron for a richer flavour.
All u have to do is take a few long strands of the kunafa dough and drizzle some melted butter . Roll it in a spiral form to make birds nests . Prepare as many pcs as u want and drizzle melted butter generously on top . Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 15 mins or till a nice and dark golden color. Remove from the oven and immidiately pour 1 tbsp of sugar syrup on each nest . Let rest for an hour.
Top each nest with your favorite topping and garnish with nuts , i have used almond halves ( you can also use only chopped pistachios or other nuts that is used in traditional birds nest baklawa)
