Kunafa Bil-Kishta Recipe

Preparation time: 00:20 | Cooking time: 00:50

INGREDIENTS

For the kunafa dough:

1.5 cups of Plain flour
1.5 cups of fine semolina
1 cup of Ghee
1 tin of NESTLÉ Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 tablespoon of Blossom water

For the cream:

1 tin of NESTLÉ Cream
3 cups of Milk
0.5 cup of corn flour
2 cups of sugar syrup

HOW TO PREPARE

In a bowl, mix plain flour, fine semolina and ghee (reserve 2 tablespoons of ghee) then add NESTLÉ Sweetened Condensed Milk and blossom water and mix well.

Pour this dough in an oven tray until it is 4 cm thick and put in a 150°C preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the dough is dry (stir the dough with a spoon every 5-6 minutes to be crumble).

Remove the dough from the oven and set aside to cool to a room temperature.

Blend the dough in a blender until its smooth then sift using a rough sieve.

Grease with the remaining ghee a 30cm round oven non-stick shallow tray. Sprinkle the mixture over and press well to flatten evenly all over the tray. Bake in a 200°C preheated oven for 20 minutes with turning the tray from time to time to all sides until all sides become golden brown in color. Remove and set aside.

In a sauce pan mix the NESTLÉ Cream, milk liquid and cornflour. Bring to boil with constant stirring until it thickens.

Pour the prepared cream to flatten evenly all over the kunafa dough.

Loosen the edges of the kunafa using a knife before overturn it to a suitable dish.

Slice and serve it hot with the sugar syrup.
