To get started with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can have baklava using 7 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to make Baklava:

1. Take 2 packs filo dough
2. Take 300 gr walnut (fine chopped)
3. Take 250 gr butter
4. Make ready 400 gr sugar
5. Take 300 ml water
6. Prepare 1 cinnamon stick

The pre-Ottoman origin of the dish is unknown, but, in modern times, it is a common dessert. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. When you remove the baklava from the oven, drizzle half the saucepan evenly all over the top. USE PISTACHIOs is the key to a more original baklava (according to my Turkish hubby).

Instructions to make Baklava:

1. First add sugar and stick cinnamon into water and boiled for 15 minutes. Leave to cool.
2. Cut filo sheets as your tray's size (it is hard to cut after finished) and cover them with a clean tea towel. (Because they are getting dry quickly)
3. Melt your butter but not burn
4. Spread butter on tray and put one sheet of filo spread butter on sheet. You will do same thing every sheet when you finished half of sheets.
5. Add walnut crumbs on the sheet and spread whipped cream on walnuts (if you want to have more crunchy you shouldn't add cream)
6. Put a sheet of filo and spread melted butter on sheet. Continue to do put sheet and spread butter till finished your sheets. Spread butter top of pastry and cut before cooked. (if you prefer you can spread walnuts every 5 sheets)
7. Put 180°c before heated oven and cook for minimum 40 mins. (if you bake too quick it could be soft inside we don't want to do this)
8. Add your cold syrup on warm baklava with a large spoon. Sprinkle the walnut crunchs top of your baklava. Enjoy!

When you remove the baklava from the oven, drizzle half the saucepan evenly all over the top. USE PISTACHIOs is the key to a more original baklava (according to my Turkish hubby). Walnuts are cheaper but pistachios definately make the baklava tastes better. Skip all those cloves and cinnamon, that stuff is for the Americanized taste. Taste the nut, butter and the good syrup.
